EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Tilbury Docks, showcasing a moment frozen in time. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the majestic Strathaird, an elegant ship that proudly dominated the dockside during its heyday. Built in 1932 and sadly scrapped in 1967, this vessel holds a significant place in maritime history. The composition of this photograph is truly remarkable, as it cleverly incorporates a reflection element. A small puddle in the foreground perfectly mirrors the ship's towering mast, creating a mesmerizing visual effect. This artistic touch adds depth and intrigue to an already stunning scene. Taken by Stanley W Rawlings between 1945 and 1965, this print showcases his exceptional talent for capturing moments that evoke nostalgia and admiration for our rich maritime heritage. Rawlings' keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate every intricate feature of both the ship and its surroundings. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to an era when ships like the Strathaird were symbols of adventure and exploration. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come while honoring those who dedicated their lives to shaping our maritime legacy. This historic photograph from Historic England encapsulates not only the grandeur of Tilbury Docks but also pays homage to S. W Rawlings' skillful artistry behind the lens.
