This wood engraving from 1853 showcases the impressive Paddle Wheel Packet Ship, Stag. A true marvel of maritime engineering, this new paddle steamship was specifically designed to transport mail and passengers for the esteemed Glasgow and Belfast Royal Mail Steam Packet Service. The ship's elegant sails gracefully complement its powerful paddle wheels, creating a striking image against the vast open ocean. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable; every line and curve expertly captures the grandeur of this vessel. The Stag stands as a symbol of progress and innovation in transportation during the mid-19th century. As we gaze upon this historic print, we are transported back in time to an era when steamboats revolutionized travel across bodies of water.
