EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving takes us back to the year 1872, showcasing the grandeur of "The Screw Steam-Ship Adriatic" as it embarks on its journey from Liverpool to New York. The White Star Line's finest vessel stands tall and proud against a backdrop of bustling maritime activity in Liverpool. With meticulous detail, Edwin Weedon captures the essence of this magnificent ship, known for its reliable steam-powered screw propulsion system. The Adriatic symbolizes technological progress and innovation during an era when transatlantic travel was rapidly evolving. As we delve into this historical print, we are transported to a time when ocean liners were seen as marvels of engineering and luxury. Passengers aboard the Adriatic would have experienced opulent interiors adorned with exquisite craftsmanship and lavish amenities. The illustration not only showcases the ship but also provides a glimpse into life in Lower New York City upon arrival. It offers a panoramic view of one of America's most iconic cities at that time – New York City – with its towering buildings and bustling harbor serving as a gateway to new opportunities for immigrants arriving from Europe. This remarkable artwork serves as a testament to human ingenuity, capturing both the awe-inspiring beauty of maritime technology and the excitement associated with venturing across vast oceans towards new horizons.
