EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in black and white, this print showcases a Christening Group possibly for the Yugoslavian Bakar at the J Samuel White and Co shipyard in Cowes, Isle of Wight on January 10th, 1931. The image transports us back to the early 20th century, offering a glimpse into an era filled with elegance and tradition. In this ceremonial event, men and women dressed impeccably in their finest attire gather around a majestic passenger ship ready for its christening. A large banner proudly displays the name 'Bakar, ' representing both country and pride. The air is filled with excitement as children eagerly await the momentous occasion. The scene exudes sophistication as ladies don fur coats while holding exquisite bouquets of flowers. Men stand tall in their tailored suits, adding to the grandeur of the event. Flags flutter gently against a backdrop of ships under construction at the renowned Kirk Sons of Cowes shipyard. Nature's beauty intertwines with human craftsmanship as plants adorn every corner of this picturesque location by water transport. The launch signifies not only an engineering feat but also symbolizes unity between nations - Croatia and England coming together through maritime excellence. This remarkable photograph captures a fleeting moment frozen in time; it invites us to reflect upon our shared history and marvel at how transportation has evolved over decades. As we gaze upon these faces from another era, we are reminded that traditions transcend time.
