EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Albert Dock in Liverpool, Merseyside. Taken by renowned photographer Eric de Mare in 1958, it offers a glimpse into the rich history and bustling maritime activity that once thrived within these iconic docks. In this particular shot, we are treated to a picturesque view of small craft gently bobbing on the calm waters of Albert Dock. Opened in 1846, Albert Dock quickly became a vital hub for trade and commerce. However, as technology advanced with the invention of steam driven ships, these docks struggled to accommodate larger vessels that were now dominating the seas. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how progress can reshape our landscapes and industries. Eric de Mare's expert composition beautifully captures both the grandeur and intimacy of this historic location. The image exudes an air of tranquility amidst its industrial surroundings; it is almost as if time has stood still for just a moment. As we gaze upon this stunning print from Historic England's collection, we are transported back to an era when sailing ships gracefully sailed through these very waters. It serves as a testament to Liverpool's enduring legacy as one of Britain's most important ports while also reminding us of the ever-changing nature of our world.
