EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of incredible bravery and heroism during the tragic Forfarshire Shipwreck in 1838. When this paddle steamer wrecked on the treacherous Farne Islands off Northumberland, lighthouse keeper William Darling and his courageous 18-year-old daughter Grace sprang into action.
Despite the perilous conditions, father and daughter rowed out to the wreck and managed to save nine souls from certain death. The image of Grace fearlessly navigating through turbulent waters to rescue those in need is truly awe-inspiring.
This historical photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the selflessness and courage displayed by ordinary individuals in times of crisis. It showcases the unwavering determination of William Darling and his young daughter Grace, who risked their own lives to ensure the safety of others.
The Forfarshire Shipwreck remains etched in history as a testament to human resilience and compassion. Through this remarkable image, we are transported back to that fateful day in September 1838 when a lighthouse keeper and his daughter became unlikely heroes on the unforgiving seas off Northumberland's coast.
