EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Pamir, one of the last commercial sailing ships, off Sydney Heads in Australia. Taken by an Australian photographer in the 20th century, this image is part of a private collection. The Pamir stands tall against the backdrop of Sydney's iconic heads, showcasing its grandeur and elegance. The photograph is an illustration from Arnold Haskell's book "Australia" published in London in 1941. It depicts a significant era when sailing ships were still used for trade and transportation across Australia and beyond. The Pamir represents a bygone era when goods were transported through sea routes by corporations engaged in free trade. This historic image takes us back to early twentieth-century Germany, where the Pamir was built. As one of Northern Germany's proud creations, it symbolizes European craftsmanship and maritime expertise. Its presence off Sydney Heads highlights Australia's importance as a hub for international trade during that time. The photo evokes nostalgia for a time when seagoing vessels like freight ships, tanker ships, tugboats, and other means of transport ruled the oceans. It reminds us of their vital role in shaping history and connecting nations across vast distances. Bridgeman Images has preserved this moment from our past through their fine art collection. This print serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our enduring fascination with maritime exploration and commerce
