EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures a moment in history that is both tragic and fascinating. In January 1873, the Northfleet, a transport ship bound for Australia with some 300 navvies on board to build railways, sank after a collision at sea. The divers in the image are preparing to descend into the depths to investigate the wreck of the Northfleet, where so many lives were lost.
The scene is one of somber determination as these brave divers gear up to explore the sunken ship and uncover what secrets it may hold. Their mission is not just one of curiosity, but also of respect for those who perished in this maritime disaster.
The story behind this print is a reminder of the dangers faced by those who traveled by sea in days gone by, as well as the incredible feats of engineering that went into building railways across vast distances like Australia. It serves as a poignant reminder of our shared human history and the sacrifices made in pursuit of progress.
As we look at this image, we are reminded of the bravery and skill of these divers who risked their own lives to uncover the truth about what happened to the Northfleet on that fateful day over a century ago.
