EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century takes us back in time to witness the bustling maritime activity at Puget Sound, British Columbia. The focal point of the image is the majestic ship "Wacousta" as it loads timber for mast-pieces. This vessel stands tall and proud against a backdrop of rugged natural beauty. The scene exudes a sense of industry and hard work, with workers diligently maneuvering logs onto the ship's deck. The sheer size and weight of these timbers highlight the immense effort required to construct such grand ships during this era. The location itself adds an extra layer of intrigue to this historical snapshot. Puget Sound, nestled in Canada's western hemisphere, was renowned for its rich timber resources that fueled North America's booming shipbuilding industry. It serves as a testament to both Canadian craftsmanship and their vital contribution to maritime history. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time, witnessing firsthand how our ancestors harnessed nature's resources to build magnificent vessels like the "Wacousta". This engraving not only captures a moment frozen in time but also pays homage to the resilience and ingenuity of those who shaped our seafaring past.
