EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken from the early 1900s, showcases the picturesque Wicklow Harbour in County Wicklow, Ireland, adorned with a fleet of sailing ships. The image transports us back in time, evoking the essence of a bygone era. The Victorian and Edwardian eras left an indelible mark on this Irish harbor, as evidenced by the elegant masts and sails of the ships, their timber hulls glistening in the sun. The tranquil waters of the harbor, dotted with bobbing buoys and the gentle lapping of the waves against the docks, create a serene atmosphere. The ships, with their distinctive rigging and tall masts, stand proudly against the backdrop of the rugged Irish coastline. The smoke from the chimneys of the nearby buildings adds a touch of industry and activity to the scene. The lantern slide, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing a window into the rich maritime history of Wicklow Harbour. This photograph is a testament to the importance of the sea and sailing ships in the lives of the people of Wicklow and the wider community during the early 1900s. The image is a treasure trove of history, transporting us to a time when the world was connected by the sea, and the sailing ships were the lifeblood of trade and commerce.
