EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to the thrilling world of yacht racing in 1893. Titled "Valkyrie before the start" it captures a moment of anticipation and intensity just before the beginning of an America's Cup race. The image showcases Valkyrie II, a magnificent yacht that was one of the contenders in this prestigious sailing competition. The photographer, Henry G. Peabody (1855-1951), skillfully captures every detail of this majestic vessel, highlighting its sleek lines and towering masts against a backdrop of calm waters. As we gaze at this photograph, we can almost feel the excitement building up among the crew members on board Valkyrie II. Their focused expressions reveal their determination to conquer both wind and waves as they embark on this challenging regatta. Peabody's expertise in capturing maritime scenes is evident in his ability to freeze time and allow us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the power behind these impressive yachts. This particular print serves as a testament to his talent for immortalizing significant moments in history through his lens. Whether you are an avid sailor or simply appreciate artistry captured through photography, this stunning print will transport you back to a bygone era where men dared greatly upon vast oceans, chasing glory under billowing sails.
