Created by Thomas Harrington Wilson in 1855, this print captures a thrilling moment during a yacht race. The scene unfolds with two majestic yachts, Romp and Julia, gracefully gliding through the water as they pass the flag-buoy at North Woolwich. The artist's attention to detail is impeccable; every line and stroke brings life to these vessels as they compete against each other in this prestigious sailing match. The atmosphere is electric with anticipation as spectators watch from afar, their eyes fixed on these magnificent boats. The wind fills their sails, propelling them forward with great speed and precision. It's a display of skillful navigation combined with sheer determination.
