EDITORS COMMENTS
The 19-metre cutter Norada gracefully glides through the waters, captured in this stunning print from 1911. Designed by Charles Nicholson and launched in the same year, Norada showcases the epitome of sailing excellence during the early 20th century. With its gaff rig and sleek silhouette, Norada exemplifies the elegance and power of a true sailing yacht. The craftsmanship of Kirk & Sons of Cowes is evident in every detail, as they meticulously brought this magnificent vessel to life. As she sails close reaching, her sails billow with the wind, propelling her forward with remarkable speed and precision. The monochrome tones add a timeless quality to this image, transporting us back to an era where yachting was not only a sport but also a symbol of status and adventure. Set against the picturesque backdrop of Isle of Wight in England, Norada's presence on these waters is truly captivating. This photograph captures not just a moment frozen in time but also reflects upon our enduring fascination with water transport and maritime history. Let this print serve as a reminder that even after more than a century has passed since its creation, Norada continues to inspire awe and admiration for those who appreciate both artistry and nautical engineering.
