EDITORS COMMENTS
The 76 ton schooner Lisette gracefully glides through the waters, captured in this timeless photo print. Created by Kirk & Sons of Cowes, the image showcases the beauty and elegance of this magnificent sailing ship. Lisette, built in 1873 at Cowes, Isle of Wight, stands as a testament to British craftsmanship and maritime history. With its gaff rig and tall masts adorned with topsails, Lisette epitomizes the golden age of sail. The monochrome composition accentuates every detail - from the intricate rigging to the sleek lines of her hull. Under full sail, she cuts through waves effortlessly, showcasing her prowess on the open seas. This image transports us back to a time when sailing ships ruled the oceans and yachting was both a sport and a way of life. It evokes feelings of adventure and freedom as we imagine ourselves aboard this majestic vessel. The photographer behind this masterpiece is Arthur Henry Kirk, whose skillful eye captures not only an extraordinary ship but also a moment frozen in time. As we admire his work today, we pay homage to William Umpleby Kirk and Edgar WP Kirk who were part of Kirk & Sons - renowned shipbuilders responsible for creating such remarkable vessels. This print serves as a reminder that even though times may change, our fascination with sailing ships endures.
