EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a moment of heroism and bravery during the tragic wreck of the Forfarshire paddle steamer on the Farne Islands off Northumberland in September 1838. Lighthouse keeper Darling and his 18-year-old daughter Grace are depicted rowing towards the sinking ship, determined to save as many lives as possible. The image is a powerful reminder of the selfless acts of courage that can emerge in times of crisis.
As they approach the wreck, one can almost feel the tension and urgency in their movements. Grace's youthful determination is evident as she assists her father in navigating through treacherous waters to reach those in need. Their actions not only saved nine lives that day but also became an enduring tale of resilience and compassion.
This historical photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of community, sacrifice, and quick thinking in moments of disaster. It showcases how ordinary individuals can rise to extraordinary heights when faced with adversity. The Forfarshire Shipwreck 5 print by Mary Evans Picture Library is a testament to human strength and solidarity during times of peril.
