EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Royal London Yacht Club Match, the Start from Erith" takes us back to a bygone era of elegance and adventure. Created by Edwin Weedon in 1855 for The Illustrated London News, this print captures the excitement and anticipation as yachts set sail on a sunny day. The scene unfolds at Erith, where the Royal London Yacht Club Match commences amidst a stunning backdrop of calm waters and billowing sails. Each yacht is meticulously detailed, showcasing their sleek designs and graceful forms. The artist's skillful hand brings life to every line and curve. Intriguingly, among these majestic vessels lies an unexpected twist – a phantom-like figure sailing alongside them. Is it merely an illusion or something more mysterious? This enigmatic presence adds an air of intrigue to the composition. Amidst all this grandeur, one cannot help but notice a playful kitten perched atop one of the yachts. Its innocent curiosity contrasts with the regal atmosphere surrounding it. We are transported back in time through this exquisite print, immersing ourselves in both history and artistry. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, we can still marvel at the beauty captured within these delicate engravings.
