Three Trans-Atlantic Travellers: A Glimpse into the Past, 1888 This trio of portraits, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a fascinating glimpse into the lives of three intrepid travellers crossing the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean aboard a steamship in 1888. At the top, we find a young man, radiant with health and vitality, who bears the title "Never Ill." His youthful countenance and robust appearance speak to his resilience and good fortune in traversing the ocean's waves. The promise of adventure and new opportunities beckons as he embarks on this transatlantic journey. In the centre, we encounter a distinguished gentleman, identified as "Colonel." His military bearing and air of authority suggest a life filled with leadership and discipline. The colonel's presence on the steamship may indicate a career in the diplomatic corps or perhaps a seasoned traveller with a penchant for exploration. At the bottom, we meet an enchanting woman, affectionately referred to as "Our Mother of Music." Her captivating expression and the violin nestled in her arms reveal her to be a virtuoso, a musician whose talent and artistry would have graced the steamship's grand salon with melodies that soothed the souls of her fellow passengers. These portraits offer a captivating glimpse into the lives of three passengers aboard a trans-Atlantic steamship in 1888. Their stories, though brief, serve as a reminder of the rich and diverse tapestry of individuals who made the journey across the Atlantic, bound by the shared experience of adventure, discovery, and the pursuit of new opportunities.
