EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in time - the bustling activity within the flooded King George V dry dock at Southampton on 27th August 1956. Three mighty cargo ships, laden with war material destined for the Mediterranean, dominate the scene. From left to right, we see the Rivercrest, the Sandsend, and the Sunkirk. The image showcases not only the sheer scale of these vessels but also highlights their significance during a crucial period in history. As they rest within this expansive dockyard, towering cranes hover above them like watchful guardians ready to load them with their precious cargo. The monochromatic format adds an air of nostalgia and drama to this composition. The contrast between light and shadow creates a sense of depth that draws us into this snapshot frozen in time. The water surrounding these massive ships reflects their imposing presence while adding a touch of serenity amidst all the industriousness. Photographer Derek Berwin skillfully captures both technical precision and artistic flair in this remarkable photograph. His lens transports us back to an era when global conflicts shaped our world's destiny. This print is not just an exquisite piece of art; it serves as a poignant reminder of our shared history and pays homage to those who sailed these seas on missions vital for peacekeeping efforts
