EDITORS COMMENTS
The steam yacht Vanessa gracefully glides through the waters, showcasing its timeless elegance and impeccable craftsmanship. This print captures a moment in history, as the Vanessa, later renamed Golden Eagle, embarks on a journey in 1913. Built by Ramage & Ferguson in Leith and launched in 1899, this magnificent vessel was a true testament to maritime engineering. The image showcases the broadside view of the yacht, highlighting its sleek design and impressive size. The skilled photographers from Kirk & Sons of Cowes perfectly captured the essence of this remarkable vessel under way. With Arthur Henry Kirk and Edgar WP Kirk behind the lens, their expertise shines through every detail. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, our minds wander to an era when steam yachts were symbols of luxury and adventure.

Its presence on American waters brought joy to those fortunate enough to witness it firsthand. This photograph is not just an exquisite piece of art; it also serves as a reminder of our rich nautical heritage. It transports us back in time to an age where sailing boats like Vanessa represented freedom and exploration on vast open seas.
