EDITORS COMMENTS
This glass negative print, dating back to around 1900, offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the bustling Whitby harbour. The view showcases the majestic river Esk adorned with an array of steam ships and boats gracefully navigating its waters. As one's eyes wander across the image, they are drawn towards the magnificent piers that stand proudly in the backdrop. The Victorian era charm is palpable in this photograph captured by John Short. The steamships, a symbol of technological progress during that time, exude an air of grandeur as they glide through the river Esk. Each boat tells its own story - tales of adventure and trade echoing through their wooden frames. Whitby harbour itself becomes a character within this visual narrative; it serves as a gateway to new horizons and opportunities for those who dare to venture forth. Its importance as a hub for commerce and transportation is evident in every detail captured on this glass negative print. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from over a century ago, we are transported back in time – immersed in an era where steam power reigned supreme and Whitby was at the heart of maritime activity. This photograph stands as both a testament to human ingenuity and an ode to our enduring fascination with exploration and discovery.
