EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling Queen Alexandra Dock in Cardiff, circa 1930. The image captures a moment of industrious activity as onions are being discharged from the SS Bajaman onto the dock. The sheer magnitude of this operation is awe-inspiring, with workers tirelessly unloading crate after crate filled with these pungent bulbs. The scene exudes an air of efficiency and teamwork, as men work together to ensure a smooth flow of goods from ship to shore. Their determination is palpable, their faces etched with concentration amidst the backdrop of towering cranes and cargo ships that dot the horizon. Queen Alexandra Dock itself stands proudly in the background, its vast expanse reflecting both its historical significance and role as a vital hub for international trade during this era. This photograph serves as a testament to Cardiff's maritime heritage and its pivotal position within global commerce. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost smell the earthy aroma of onions permeating through the air while imagining how these humble vegetables would eventually find their way into kitchens across Britain. Preserved at STEAM Museum of GWR, this evocative print offers us a glimpse into an era when manual labor was paramount and docks like Queen Alexandra were teeming with life. It reminds us of our rich industrial past while honoring those who played an integral role in shaping it.
