EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a thrilling moment in sailing history. Titled "Boats Polly, Jean and Victoria starting 6 Metre race, 1921" the image takes us back to the vibrant world of yacht racing in the early 20th century. The three sleek sailboats, Polly, Jean, and Victoria, are seen gracefully gliding through the water as they prepare to embark on an exhilarating competition. The photograph was taken by Arthur Henry Kirk and Edgar WP Kirk of Kirk Sons of Cowes, renowned photographers from England's Isle of Wight. Their expertise is evident in this monochrome masterpiece that perfectly encapsulates the spirit of yachting. Set against the picturesque backdrop of Cowes' coastal beauty, these boats showcase their Bermuda rig sails with elegance and precision. As representatives of different countries or clubs participating under international rules, each vessel represents a unique blend of craftsmanship and sporting prowess. The image transports us to a time when sailing was not only a sport but also a symbol of prestige and adventure. With William Umpleby Kirk's involvement in capturing this historic moment adds further significance to its authenticity. Whether you're an avid sailor or simply appreciate stunning photography from bygone eras, this striking print will surely evoke nostalgia for a time when wind-powered vessels ruled the waves.
