EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the majestic RMS Asia as it sails the open sea in 1850. The Royal Mail Paddle-steamer was the largest steamship ever built on the River Clyde, measuring an impressive length overall of 280 feet and boasting a gross tonnage of 2226 tons. A testament to the technological advancements of the time, the Asia was a marvel of engineering and design. With its sleek lines and powerful paddle wheels, it cut through the waves with ease and grace. The Asia was a significant addition to the maritime world, setting new standards for size and capacity. Built by the renowned Cunard Line, this steamship was a crucial part of the growing global shipping industry. Though primarily used for mail and passenger transportation, the Asia's impact on maritime history cannot be overstated. This engraving, dated 07, 1850, provides a glimpse into the past, offering a window into the world of steamships during the Victorian era. The intricate details of the ship's design, from its tall smokestacks to its ornate decorations, are beautifully rendered in this historical image. The Asia's decimation of previous size records on the River Clyde solidified its place in maritime history, making it an essential subject for collectors and historians alike. This image, from the ILN (Illustrated London News) archive, is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of steamships and the maritime industry. The RMS Asia's legacy continues to inspire and captivate, reminding us of the ingenuity and determination of those who dared to push the boundaries of what was possible on the open sea.
