EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the starboard side of the gunboat Delta, peacefully moored in the majestic River Tyne. Taken around 1876 by an English photographer, this image transports us back to a time when travel and transport relied heavily on waterways. The Delta stands proudly against the backdrop of a bustling river, showcasing its impressive size and strength. As we gaze upon this historic vessel, we are reminded of Britain's naval prowess during the Victorian era. This gunboat served as a formidable warship, ready to defend British interests both at home and abroad. With intricate details visible in every corner of this photograph, it is evident that great care was taken to capture this moment in time. The craftsmanship involved in constructing such a magnificent vessel is truly remarkable. As our eyes wander across the image, we cannot help but notice subtle hints of Chinese influence present on the Delta's exterior. Perhaps this ship played a role in fostering diplomatic relations between Britain and China during that period. Preserved for posterity by Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums, this photograph serves as a testament to our rich maritime history. It allows us to appreciate not only the engineering marvels of yesteryears but also highlights how rivers like Tyne were once vital lifelines for trade and transportation. In collaboration with Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, this print offers an opportunity to own a piece of history – an exquisite reminder of our enduring fascination with ships and their significance throughout different eras
