EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic 15 Metre cutter Paula II, gracefully close-hauled in the year 1911. Crafted by the renowned Kirk & Sons of Cowes, this sailing beauty was designed by none other than Alfred Mylne and launched a year prior. The image perfectly captures the essence of a breezy day on water as Paula II elegantly maneuvers through the waves. The monochrome composition adds an air of nostalgia to this snapshot from history, transporting us back to a time when sailboats ruled the seas. With its gaff rig and impeccable design, Paula II stands tall against the backdrop of England's Isle of Wight. The Kirk family played an integral role in bringing this masterpiece to life, with Arthur Henry Kirk and his son Edgar WP Kirk contributing their expertise. Meanwhile, William Umpleby Kirk ensured that every detail was meticulously executed. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph, we can almost feel the wind in our hair and taste salt on our lips. It serves as a reminder of both man's ingenuity in harnessing nature's power for transportation and our eternal fascination with sailing yachts.
