EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print titled "Big Steamers" transports viewers to a bygone era of ships, trade, and poetry. The colorful lithograph, created by Donald Maxwell in 1926, is an illustration for Rudyard Kipling's collection of verses called "Sea and Sussex". The image showcases the grandeur of big steamers sailing across the sea against a backdrop of white cliffs. It captures the essence of England's maritime heritage and its strong connection to coal trade during that time. The poem accompanying this artwork speaks to the power and significance of these massive vessels. As we gaze at this picturesque scene, our eyes are drawn to a rainbow gracefully arching over the countryside. This symbolizes hope amidst the vastness of the sea and reminds us of Kipling's evocative poetry. The print not only reflects English culture but also hints at Germany's influence with mentions of German ships navigating European waters. It offers a glimpse into historical connections between nations through trade routes and shared experiences. With its intricate details and vivid colors, this print invites us on a visual journey through time while reminding us of the beauty found in both nature and human ingenuity.
