EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic R. M. S. Mauretania in all her glory, taken in 1937. The ship, a symbol of British maritime prowess and engineering excellence, sails gracefully through the vast expanse of the open sea. Its striking red exterior stands out against the pristine white waves, creating a stunning visual contrast that epitomizes both artistry and industry. The photograph captures a momentous era in transportation history when ocean liners ruled the seas as icons of luxury and adventure. The black smoke billowing from its funnel adds an element of drama to this panoramic composition, evoking a sense of power and movement. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, it transports us back to the thirties - an era marked by progress and innovation. It reminds us of Britain's dominance in navigation during the 20th century and highlights how ships like R. M. S. Mauretania played a vital role in connecting people across continents. This print is not just a snapshot frozen in time; it represents more than that. It serves as a metaphor for exploration, discovery, and human ingenuity – concepts deeply ingrained within our collective consciousness. Thanks to The Story of Navigation book published by The Imperial Tobacco Co. , Ltd. , we can now appreciate Leonard Peskett's exceptional photography skills captured on this cigarette card-sized print collector29 without any commercial use intentions attached to it.
