EDITORS COMMENTS
At Work on the Stern of the Mauretania, in Dry Dock, c1930". This print takes us back to the bustling docks of 1930s Britain. The image captures a moment in time when industry and innovation were at their peak. In this scene, we witness an unknown worker diligently working on the stern of the majestic RMS Mauretania, one of the most renowned ocean liners of its era. The dry dock provides a unique perspective as it allows us to see beneath the waterline, revealing intricate details such as propellers and rudders that are usually hidden from view. Leonard Peskett's masterful composition showcases both the grandeur and complexity of these magnificent vessels. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we can almost feel ourselves transported back in time - hearing echoes of clanging metal against metal and smelling hints of saltwater mingling with industrial scents. It is a testament to human ingenuity and craftsmanship that such colossal ships could be built with precision. This photograph is part of "The Wonder Book of Ships" edited by Harry Golding - a literary treasure that celebrates maritime history through captivating visuals like this one. As we admire this print collector's work today, let us appreciate not only its artistic value but also its role in preserving our rich heritage for future generations to marvel at.
