EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of determination and camaraderie among the all-female crew of the sailing vessel, Stern Lady, in the bustling port of Cowes on the Isle of Wight, Hampshire, England, in the year 1901. The stern view of the boat showcases the severe and imposing figure of the skipper, her strong, focused gaze fixed on the horizon as she expertly steers the vessel with a confident hand on the tiller. Her crew, a group of young women, are equally engrossed in their tasks, their expressions reflecting a sense of concentration and commitment. One crew member, with a red scarf tied around her neck and a hat perched atop her head, leans over the hatch, intently watching the sails as another, wearing a pince-nez, adjusts the boom. The Solent, the famous English Channel that separates the Isle of Wight from the mainland, stretches out behind them, its waters dotted with other sailing vessels and steamships. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the lives of these brave women, who defied societal norms to pursue their passion for sailing and the sea.
