EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back to a glorious moment in sailing history. The image captures the majestic Columbia, a sloop yacht renowned for its grace and speed, as it sets its spinnaker boom on October 3rd, 1899. The scene is set during the intense competition of regattas where yachts like Columbia showcased their prowess on the open waters. This particular event was part of the prestigious Goelet Cup Race, which attracted some of the most skilled sailors and elegant vessels of that era. As our eyes wander across this remarkable photograph, we notice two other yachts named Gracie and Barbara gracefully gliding alongside Columbia. These three magnificent vessels seem almost locked in an intricate dance as they navigate through wind and waves. It's fascinating to imagine being present at such a thrilling moment in time when these beautiful yachts competed against each other with sheer determination and skill. The photographer has masterfully captured not only their impressive speed but also their elegance as they cut through the water effortlessly. This print serves as a testament to both human ingenuity in designing these marvelous boats and nature's raw power harnessed by skillful sailors. It reminds us of our enduring fascination with sailing races throughout history - events that continue to captivate audiences worldwide even today.
