EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic 6-metre Lanka sailing close-hauled in 1914. Created by Kirk & Sons of Cowes, this masterpiece captures the essence of a bygone era. The image portrays the sheer elegance and power of this beautiful sailing yacht as it gracefully cuts through the water. The Bermuda rig is flawlessly displayed, with its triangular sails perfectly positioned to catch every gust of wind. The monochrome effect adds a timeless quality to the picture, emphasizing the classic beauty of both boat and surroundings. Located off England's Isle of Wight, Cowes provides an idyllic backdrop for this nautical scene. The weather seems slightly turbulent, evident from the windswept waves surrounding Lanka. However, these challenging conditions only enhance her allure as she confidently navigates through them. The Kirk family's expertise in shipbuilding shines through in every detail captured here. Edgar WP Kirk and William Umpleby Kirk have skillfully crafted this vessel to withstand even the harshest elements while maintaining its gracefulness. This print transports us back in time, evoking a sense of adventure on open waters. It serves as a reminder that sailing has long been not just a means of transportation but also an art form – one that continues to captivate enthusiasts worldwide today.
