EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history on the 20th of September, 1909 at Fishguard Docks in Pembroke, Wales. The image shows a group of manual workers on the gangplank of the iconic Cunard liner SS Mauretania, one of the most famous ships of its time.
The men are seen loading cargo onto the vessel, showcasing the hustle and bustle of maritime transportation in early 20th century Europe. The SS Mauretania looms large in the background, a symbol of luxury and innovation in ocean travel.
The stark contrast between light and shadow adds to the drama of this scene, highlighting the rugged masculinity of these workers as they go about their tasks with precision and determination.
