EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "The Truelove, of Hull, the Last of the Sailing Whalers" takes us back to a bygone era of maritime adventure. Created by an anonymous English artist in the 19th century, this print showcases the majestic beauty and grandeur of a sailing whaler ship. The Truelove stands tall against a vast expanse of ocean, its sails billowing in the wind as it navigates through treacherous waters. This image is not just about a ship; it represents an entire industry that once thrived on these vessels - whaling. The scene evokes both awe and nostalgia for those who appreciate history and maritime culture. As we gaze upon this artwork, we can almost hear the creaking wood and feel the salty breeze on our faces. It transports us to a time when brave sailors embarked on perilous journeys in search of whales for their valuable blubber and oil. "The Truelove" serves as a poignant reminder that progress inevitably leads to change. In this case, it marks the end of an era –the last sailing whaler from Hull– as steam-powered ships began replacing these magnificent vessels. This engraving was originally published in The Illustrated London News in February 1870, capturing imaginations with its intricate details and skillful craftsmanship. Preserved within private collections today, it continues to captivate viewers with its historical significance and artistic merit.
