EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to June 1972, capturing the essence of Philip and Son boatyard at Noss on the picturesque River Dart. The image transports us to a bygone era, evoking feelings of nostalgia for the seventies. In this snapshot, we witness a bustling scene filled with boats and ships that were once crafted with care in this renowned shipbuilding hub. Located in the United Kingdom's enchanting South West region of Devon, this boatyard played a significant role in the transport and shipping industry during the 20th century. The composition showcases an array of vessels resting peacefully within dry docks, awaiting their turn for maintenance or construction. The skilled workers diligently carry out their tasks amidst towering cranes and other industrial machinery. Their dedication is palpable as they contribute to shaping these magnificent structures that will conquer mighty waters. As we delve into this moment frozen in time, it becomes evident that shipbuilding was not merely an occupation but an art form. Each vessel tells its own story – tales of adventure, exploration, and trade – all woven together by countless hours spent within these very walls. Mirrorpix has masterfully captured this slice of history through their lens; allowing us to appreciate both the craftsmanship involved in shipbuilding and the significance it held for communities like Noss on the River Dart. This print serves as a reminder of how industries shape our world while simultaneously igniting our imagination about what lies beyond those tranquil waters.
