EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Seven Hundred Miles in the 'Berthon' Collapsible Lifeboat" takes us back to a momentous event in maritime history. The image depicts the Royal Mail Steamship Essequibo bidding farewell and lowering the innovative Berthon collapsible lifeboat into the vast ocean on 14 August. This remarkable invention proved its worth as it successfully transported troops, including members of the Royal Navy and Army, across seven hundred miles. Captain Harvey skillfully navigates through treacherous waters such as the Bay of Biscay, while facing numerous difficulties along the way. The engraving showcases both bravery and ingenuity as these men part ways with their larger vessel to embark on this daring adventure. The scene also captures a solar observation taking place onboard, highlighting scientific advancements amidst military operations. A tugboat accompanies them for support during this groundbreaking journey. This print serves as a testament to human resilience and determination in times of war. It symbolizes not only transportation but also unity among armed forces from different branches and even royalty. The artist's attention to detail brings this historical event to life, allowing viewers to imagine themselves witnessing this extraordinary feat firsthand.
