EDITORS COMMENTS
The 12-metre Ierne gracefully sails close-hauled, showcasing the epitome of elegance and craftsmanship in this photo print. Created by Kirk & Sons of Cowes, this stunning image captures the timeless beauty of Ierne, a masterpiece designed by William Fife III and launched in 1911. With its sleek lines and gaff rigging, Ierne exemplifies the classic charm of early 20th-century sailing yachts. The monochrome composition adds a touch of nostalgia to the scene, transporting us back to an era when sailing was not just a sport but a way of life. Moored off the picturesque Isle of Wight in England, Ierne stands as a testament to both her creators' skill and her owner's passion for yachting. This vessel represents one among various classes including the 6 metre, 7 metre, 8 metre, 10 metre, and other majestic sailboats that graced these waters during that time. As we admire this remarkable piece of maritime history frozen in time through Edgar WP Kirk's lens - one can almost feel the wind filling those billowing sails. It serves as a reminder that even amidst our modern world filled with advanced transportation options; there is still something truly magical about harnessing nature's power to glide across vast oceans. This evocative photograph is more than just an image; it encapsulates an entire era where sailing was not only about competition or leisure but also about embracing adventure on water.
