"Stranded: Tales of Abandoned Journeys and Forgotten Destinations" Old fishing boats, once the lifeblood of Isle of Mull, now lay abandoned on its sandy shores, silently rotting away under the Scottish sun. Ships trapped in the Suez Canal during the Six-Day War stand as haunting reminders of a conflict that halted global trade and left vessels stranded amidst political turmoil. The weathered deck of SS Gallia tells stories untold, whispering secrets from 1879 when this majestic ship met an unfortunate fate and became forever stranded at sea. The Master of the Asteroid gazes into the vastness of space from his solitary perch, marooned on a distant rock with only his thoughts to keep him company. An astronaut surveys his desolate surroundings after being marooned on a barren planet, contemplating survival against all odds in an unforgiving universe. In Reykjanesskagi's Southern Peninsula lies a rusting old fishing boat; its decaying hull stands as a testament to nature's relentless grip on man-made creations. Robinson Crusoe and Man Friday find themselves stranded together on an oil canvas masterpiece, showcasing their resilience in adapting to isolation while forging an unlikely friendship. VERNE: ROUND THE MOON comes alive through intricate wood engravings depicting astronauts floating above Earth's surface—stranded between worlds yet filled with wonder for what lies beyond. British troops outside an abandoned café at Dunkirk capture the essence of desperation and hopelessness during World War II—a moment frozen in time where soldiers were left stranded but not defeated. Eduard Bohlen rests eternally off Namibia's Skeleton Coast—an eerie reminder that even mighty ships can succumb to nature's whims and become permanently grounded by sand dunes' embrace.
