Canvas Print : The Shipwreck of Lady Elizabeth in Whale Bone Cove in Port Stanley Harbour, Falkland Islands, British Overseas Territory
Canvas Prints from Australian Views
The Shipwreck of Lady Elizabeth in Whale Bone Cove in Port Stanley Harbour, Falkland Islands, British Overseas Territory
Lady Elizabeth, built in 1875, was an iron barque Sunderland. On 4 December 1912, Lady Elizabeth left Vancouver bound for Delagoa Bay Mozambique, with a shipment of lumber and encountered severe weather halfway through the voyage. She was damaged just off Cape Horn. On the way to the nearest port for repair, she struck Uranie Rock just off Volunteer Point and began to sink. Even though she made it to Port Stanley, she was condemned after being examined and moored in Stanley Harbour to be used as a coal hulk. In 1936, during a strong gale, she broke from her mooring and drifted down the harbour to Whalebone Cove where she ran aground and still rests today

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the haunting beauty of "The Shipwreck of Lady Elizabeth in Whale Bone Cove in Port Stanley Harbour, Falkland Islands". The image showcases the remnants of the Lady Elizabeth, an iron barque that met a tragic fate during a treacherous voyage in 1912. Built in 1875 and originally bound for Delagoa Bay Mozambique with a shipment of lumber, she encountered severe weather near Cape Horn and was damaged. Despite making it to Port Stanley for repairs, she was condemned and repurposed as a coal hulk. In 1936, during a powerful gale, the Lady Elizabeth broke free from her mooring and drifted down the harbor to Whalebone Cove where she now rests eternally grounded. The photograph highlights her decaying iron hull surrounded by vibrant vegetation on this remote coastline. Artie Photography skillfully captures this poignant scene, showcasing both the strength and vulnerability of man-made structures against nature's forces. The rusty masts and keel stand as solemn reminders of past maritime endeavors while blending harmoniously with their natural surroundings. This evocative image transports viewers to this remote British Overseas Territory in the South Atlantic Ocean. It serves as a testament to both human resilience and Mother Nature's power—a visual narrative frozen in time that leaves us contemplating our place within these vast landscapes.
