EDITORS COMMENTS
The steam yacht Greta gracefully rests at anchor in this print taken in 1912. Built by Scott & Co at Greenock in 1895, the magnificent vessel was later renamed Laranda. The image, captured by Arthur Henry Kirk of Kirk & Sons of Cowes, showcases the timeless beauty of Greta amidst the serene waters surrounding England's Isle of Wight. With its sleek silhouette and impeccable craftsmanship, Greta epitomizes the golden age of steam yachts. This remarkable piece of maritime history stands as a testament to both engineering prowess and nautical elegance. As Sir Percival Perry, an esteemed figure from Ford Motor Company, once admired her port broadside view from afar. The monochrome composition adds a touch of nostalgia to the scene while emphasizing every intricate detail on board. From William Umpleby Kirk's meticulous design to Edgar WP Kirk's expert photography skills, this image encapsulates a moment frozen in time. As we gaze upon this stunning boat view photograph today, we are transported back to an era when steamships ruled the seas and transportation relied on waterways for trade and leisurely voyages alike. Let us cherish this glimpse into our rich maritime heritage – a reminder that even within stillness lies endless stories waiting to be discovered.
