EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the bustling docks of Manchester in May 1967. Through a veil of mist, we catch a glimpse of an industrious scene unfolding before our eyes. The image captures several ships unloading their cargo, as if engaged in an intricate dance with the cranes towering above them. Each ship seems to have its own purpose, contributing to the ceaseless rhythm of this vibrant maritime hub. The mist adds an ethereal quality to the photograph, creating a sense of mystery and intrigue. It softens the edges and blurs the details just enough to allow our imagination to fill in the gaps. As we peer into this snapshot from history, it becomes apparent that there is more than meets the eye. Intriguingly, a tugboat glides through the water with ease, leaving gentle ripples in its wake. Its presence suggests that even amidst all this industry and activity, there is still room for tranquility and harmony. This image encapsulates not only a specific moment in time but also an entire era—the swinging sixties—when England's shipping industry was at its peak. It serves as a reminder of Manchester's vital role as a transport hub during those transformative decades. Rawlinson's expert composition allows us to witness this slice of history from afar while simultaneously drawing us closer into its enigmatic allure—a testament to his skillful artistry behind the lens.
