The Voyage of the SY 'Ceylon' to the Land of the Midnight Sun
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving takes us on a visual journey aboard the majestic sailing yacht, SY 'Ceylon', as it embarks on an extraordinary expedition to the enchanting Land of the Midnight Sun. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures a momentous event that unfolded during one fateful afternoon. The scene is set against a backdrop of breathtaking natural beauty, with Traen Islands and Norway's North Cape serving as witnesses to this remarkable voyage. As we delve into every intricate detail, we witness passengers indulging in afternoon tea while traversing through Northerly Town's main street. The topography unfolds before our eyes - from zigzagging fjords and Romsdal Valley's glacier-carved landscapes to reaching No 1 Meridian Point at the Arctic Circle. A knowledgeable guide accompanies visitors, providing insights into Lap family traditions and European history. As SY 'Ceylon' docks at Hammerfest Harbor, Norwegian locals welcome its arrival with open arms. The transport system includes carrioles - traditional horse-drawn vehicles - which navigate through narrow streets adorned with peculiar rock formations known as "Witches Teeth". This engraving not only showcases stunning Scandinavian scenery but also celebrates unity within Europe. It reminds us that exploration knows no boundaries or borders; it connects people from different backgrounds and cultures under one common adventure.
