EDITORS COMMENTS
The 7 Metre Anitra (K4) gracefully battles the elements, heeling in strong winds off the coast of Cowes, Isle of Wight in 1912. This print captures the sheer power and elegance of this racing yacht designed by Arthur Henry Kirk and built by Kirk & Sons of Cowes. With its sleek lines and Bermuda rigging, the Anitra showcases the epitome of early 20th-century sailing technology. Close-hauled against a backdrop of turbulent skies, it demonstrates both the skill of its crew and the resilience required to navigate such challenging conditions. The image transports us back to an era when yachting was not only a sport but also a symbol of prestige and adventure. The international rule governing yacht design at that time gave rise to various classes like the 6 metre, 8 metre, 10 metre, and even larger vessels like this magnificent 7-metre beauty. As we gaze upon this monochromatic masterpiece captured by Edgar WP Kirk with William Umpleby Kirk as part of their father's legacy at Kirk & Sons, we can almost feel ourselves on board experiencing firsthand what it must have been like to sail through wind-whipped waves. This photograph is not just a testament to maritime history but also serves as a reminder that nature's forces are no match for human determination.
