EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Round the World Yachting in the 'Ceylon', II at Gibraltar" takes us back to a bygone era of adventure and exploration. The image captures a momentous scene as the magnificent yacht, Ceylon, docks at Gibraltar during its round-the-world journey. The bustling streets of Gibraltar come alive with activity as gentlemen clad in elegant attire descend from the ship's galleries onto solid ground. The architecture of this historic town endows it with an air of grandeur, while street scenes reveal glimpses of daily life - from the egg market to calesas traversing through narrow lanes. In the background, we see the imposing rock formation that has become synonymous with Gibraltar. Its sheer magnitude commands attention and serves as a reminder of nature's power and beauty. Amidst all this excitement, one can almost hear voices echoing through time - conversations filled with tales of distant lands and daring exploits. It is an enchanting snapshot that transports us to a different era when yachting around the world was reserved for intrepid adventurers seeking new horizons. This print not only captures a specific moment but also evokes a sense of wanderlust and curiosity about what lies beyond our familiar shores. It reminds us that there is always more to discover if we are willing to set sail into uncharted waters.
