Leviathan 1858 - A Glimpse into the Progress of Steam Navigation
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "Leviathan 1858" offers a mesmerizing montage of images that chronicle the remarkable advancements in steam navigation during the 19th century. The engraving, created by an English School artist, showcases various vessels that played pivotal roles in shaping maritime history. From left to right, we witness the evolution of steam-powered boats. Beginning with The Comet, widely regarded as the first successful steamboat, we are taken on a visual journey through time and innovation. Marlborough, Fairy (the first war steamer), United Kingdom, Great Western, Enterprise – each vessel represents a significant milestone in nautical engineering. The inclusion of Screw Gun Boat and Margate Steamer further emphasizes how steam power revolutionized transportation at sea. These images pay homage to renowned figures such as L Scott Russell and Brunel who spearheaded these groundbreaking developments. Notably absent from this montage is any mention of commercial use or specific companies; instead, it focuses solely on celebrating scientific progress and technological achievements within the realm of steam navigation. As we delve into this extraordinary piece capturing both artistry and historical significance, it becomes evident that Leviathan 1858 encapsulates not only Britain's rich maritime heritage but also its pioneering spirit in pushing boundaries for human advancement.
