EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to a moment of bittersweet farewell. The grand vessel Orontes, a majestic Orient liner, stands tall against the backdrop of Tilbury port as it prepares to embark on an epic journey from England to Australia. As the ship's powerful engines hum with anticipation, well-wishers gather along the fence-lined pier to bid adieu to Douglas Jardine and his fellow members of the prestigious MCC (Marylebone Cricket Club). The scene is filled with emotion as friends and family wave goodbye, their faces etched with both pride and longing. A sense of adventure hangs in the air as this iconic ship readies itself for its transcontinental voyage. Against the silhouette of Orontes' towering presence, lampposts cast long shadows that seem to echo the sentimentality felt by those left behind. Amidst all this commotion stands a lone male figure, perhaps one of the departing cricketers or even a crew member bidding farewell before setting sail. His stance exudes determination and excitement for what lies ahead on this monumental journey across vast oceans. Captured by Davis in stunning detail, this print not only immortalizes an important historical moment but also invites us into a world where dreams take flight upon mighty ships like Orontes – vessels that symbolize hope, discovery, and endless possibilities.
