EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the hydroplane Columbine in all its glory as it glides through the water. Created by Kirk & Sons of Cowes, this remarkable vessel was built by Sam E. Saunders in 1909 under the Fauber design. The image captures the essence of early 20th-century power boats, with its sleek hull and impressive speed. The photograph provides a unique perspective from the starboard bow, offering viewers a glimpse into the world of water transport during that era. Located off the coast of England on the Isle of Wight, Cowes served as an ideal location for boat enthusiasts to witness such magnificent creations. Arthur Henry Kirk and Edgar WP Kirk are credited with capturing this momentous scene through their lens, showcasing their exceptional talent in monochrome photography. Their expertise brings out every detail of Columbine's design concept while highlighting its sheer elegance against a backdrop of serene waters. As we admire this historical snapshot, let us appreciate William Umpleby Kirk's contribution to preserving our maritime heritage through his documentation efforts. This print serves as a testament to his dedication and passion for capturing significant moments in transportation history.
