EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Stella sailing close-hauled in 1914. Created by Kirk & Sons of Cowes, this stunning image showcases the beauty and elegance of the 6 Metre class yacht. With its sleek design and Bermuda rig, Stella cuts through the water with grace and power. The photograph was taken during a time when yachting was a popular sport, showcasing both skill and craftsmanship. The International Rule governed these races, ensuring fair competition among boats of different sizes. Stella's windward bow demonstrates her ability to navigate against the wind, displaying her exceptional performance on the open seas. Located in Cowes on the Isle of Wight in England, Kirk & Sons were renowned for their expertise in boat building. Arthur Henry Kirk and his brother Edgar WP Kirk were instrumental in creating this masterpiece that has stood the test of time. As we gaze upon this monochrome image, we are transported back to an era where sailing was not just a means of transportation but also a beloved pastime. The photo encapsulates both nostalgia for a bygone century as well as admiration for human ingenuity and our enduring connection with nature's elements.
