EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a momentous occasion in maritime history - the first time the largest ship in the world, the newly launched steamer "Oceanic" floated gracefully on water. Created by Charles Edward Dixon, this artwork showcases the grandeur and magnitude of this colossal vessel. The "Oceanic" stands as a testament to human engineering prowess and innovation during the late 19th century. Its sheer size is awe-inspiring, dominating both land and sea with its majestic presence. As it glides across calm waters, one can only imagine the excitement and anticipation that filled the air on that historic day. Dixon's attention to detail brings every aspect of this magnificent ship to life. From its towering smokestacks billowing clouds of steam to its intricate hull design cutting through waves effortlessly, each element is meticulously portrayed. This engraving was originally published in The Graphic on January 21st, 1899 - an era when illustrated papers were at their peak popularity. It serves as a visual record of an extraordinary feat achieved by mankind. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back in time to witness a groundbreaking moment in maritime history. The "Oceanic" symbolizes progress, ambition, and human ingenuity - reminding us of our endless pursuit for exploration and pushing boundaries beyond what was once thought possible.
