EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil on canvas print titled "Steam Tug Towing a Ship at the Mouth of the Tyne" by Bernard Benedict Hemy transports us to the bustling River Tyne in North Shields, UK. The painting showcases a steam paddle tug diligently towing a ship up the river, highlighting their crucial role in enabling large sailing ships to reach the port of Newcastle. Intriguingly, we can spot the distinctive black silhouette of Wellesley, a naval training ship stationed at North Shields. This vessel served as an educational institution for young boys honing their skills for future maritime careers. Standing proudly behind her is a formidable naval warship, adding an air of power and authority to this vibrant scene. Hemy himself was intimately familiar with this coastal region, having resided in Shields for much of his artistic career. His attention to detail and mastery of capturing maritime scenes are evident in every brushstroke. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness not only the industrious nature of shipping but also glimpse into daily life along these historic shores. It serves as a reminder that without these steadfast tugs guiding them through treacherous waters, majestic sailing vessels would have been unable to navigate their way towards prosperity and trade.
