EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1850 with this engraving of the after-deck of the RMS Asia, a marvel of engineering and elegance. The Cunard Line Royal Mail Paddle-steamer Asia was truly a sight to behold, as the largest steamship ever built on the River Clyde at that time. With a length overall of 280 feet and a gross tonnage of 2226 tons, it represented the pinnacle of maritime technology.
In this historical image, one can almost feel the excitement and anticipation of passengers as they embarked on their journey across the sea. The ships boats are neatly secured on their davits, ready for any emergency that may arise during the voyage. The towering funnel for the engine looms overhead, emitting plumes of smoke into the vast expanse of sky.
The attention to detail in this engraving is truly remarkable, capturing not just a moment in history but also an essence of adventure and exploration. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of transportation and communication since those early days. Let yourself be transported back to an era when steamships ruled the seas with this stunning print from Mary Evans Prints Online.
