EDITORS COMMENTS
Oil tanker on fire (colour litho) captures the intense and dramatic scene of a blazing oil tanker engulfed in flames. This powerful image, created by an anonymous English School artist from the 20th century, is part of a private collection. Taken from The Picture Book of Firemen published in the 1930s by Ward, Lock & Co. , Limited, this illustration vividly portrays the dangerous and heroic work of firefighters battling against raging fires at sea. The fiery inferno illuminates the dark night sky as billowing smoke fills the air. The steamship and paddle wheel steamer nearby stand witness to this catastrophic event, while a tugboat valiantly attempts to control the chaos. This artwork showcases various means of transportation involved in maritime activities during that era. The vibrant colors used in this lithograph bring life to every detail - from the flickering flames to the turbulent waves beneath. It serves as a reminder of one of nature's most destructive forces: fire. This print not only highlights bravery but also raises awareness about safety precautions necessary for those working at sea. It symbolizes both danger and resilience within its intricate composition. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical masterpiece, allowing us to appreciate its artistic brilliance while reflecting on past events that have shaped our understanding of firefighting and maritime history.
