EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic French three-masted barque La Fontaine as it sails off the coast of Falmouth, Cornwall in July 1909. The impressive vessel, built with sturdy steel at Ateliers and Chantiers in Nantes in 1899, showcases the remarkable craftsmanship of its time. Owned by Societe Generale d Armement and registered in Nantes, La Fontaine was a true maritime marvel weighing an astounding 2202 tons gross. With her grand dimensions measuring 275 feet, 6 inches long, 40 feet 5 inches wide, and standing at a height of 22 feet 7 inches, she commanded attention wherever she sailed. The skilled photographer Sharman masterfully captured this historic moment on film. The image transports us back to an era when shipping and transport played vital roles in connecting nations across vast bodies of water. As we admire this stunning photograph from the Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, we are reminded of Cornwall's rich maritime heritage. This snapshot encapsulates not only the beauty of La Fontaine but also pays homage to the countless vessels that have graced these waters throughout history
