EDITORS COMMENTS
The Big Class, 186 ton sailing yacht Lulworth making good speed, 1924. This print captures the sheer elegance and power of the magnificent Lulworth as it sails through the waters with remarkable grace. Designed by Herbert William White and built in 1920, this iconic vessel showcases the epitome of early 20th-century sailing excellence. In this snapshot taken off the coast of Cowes on the Isle of Wight, England, we witness Lulworth in her full glory. The gaff-rigged cutter is seen close-hauled, its sails billowing in the wind as it confidently navigates through the waves. The skilled craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident in every aspect of this beautiful yacht. The photograph was expertly captured by Arthur Henry Kirk during a moment when Lulworth was at peak performance. With William Umpleby Kirk and Edgar WP Kirk from Kirk Sons of Cowes overseeing her construction, it's no wonder that she became an icon among sailing enthusiasts. This monochrome image not only transports us back to a time when sailboats ruled the seas but also reminds us of our enduring fascination with water transport. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our eternal connection with nature. Whether you're a lover of maritime history or simply appreciate breathtaking photography, this stunning print will undoubtedly add a touch of timeless beauty to any space.
