EDITORS COMMENTS
The 19-metre cutter Norada, designed by Charles Nicholson and launched in 1911, gracefully sails close-hauled in this photo print. Captured by Kirk & Sons of Cowes, renowned for their exceptional maritime photography, the image showcases the timeless beauty of this magnificent sailing yacht. Norada's sleek lines and gaff rig are a testament to the craftsmanship and innovation of her time. As she cuts through the water with precision, one can almost feel the exhilaration experienced by those on board during this thrilling sail. Located off the coast of England on the Isle of Wight, Cowes has long been synonymous with yachting excellence. It is here that Kirk & Sons established themselves as masters of their craft, capturing moments like these that encapsulate both sport and artistry. The monochrome aesthetic adds a sense of nostalgia to this photograph from the early 20th century. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect - from Norada's perfectly trimmed sails to her elegant silhouette against the horizon. This print serves as a reminder of a bygone era when sailing was not only a means of transportation but also an expression of passion and adventure. It invites us to appreciate both the technical prowess behind such vessels and their enduring allure.
