The image, captured by British photographer Robert Howlett, showcases a momentous event in history - the launch of the magnificent ship known as the Great Eastern. The photograph depicts a group of individuals led by Isambard Kingdom Brunel, one of the most renowned engineers and visionaries of his time. Standing on a platform overlooking the vast expanse of water before them, they eagerly observe with anticipation as this engineering marvel is prepared for its maiden voyage.
