EDITORS COMMENTS
This historical print captures a poignant moment in time as passengers bid farewell to their loved ones on a Trans-Atlantic steamer. The engraving depicts a sailor casting off the ropes, signaling the departure of the tug Alexandra and the steamship Moselle heading out to sea in 1888. The scene is filled with emotion, as passengers wave their hats in the air, showing both excitement for their journey ahead and sadness at leaving behind familiar shores.
The image transports us back to a bygone era when travel by sea was not only an adventure but also a symbol of hope and new beginnings. The detailed illustration allows us to witness this important event in history, where people from different walks of life come together for a common purpose - to embark on an epic voyage across the vast Atlantic Ocean.
As we gaze upon this timeless snapshot, we are reminded of the importance of human connection and the shared experience of saying goodbye before setting off on unknown waters. It serves as a reminder that despite our differences, we are all united by our desire for exploration and discovery. This print is truly a treasure trove of nostalgia and wonderment, capturing a moment that will forever be etched in our hearts.
