EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a dramatic scene of a ferry bravely crossing the choppy waters of the River Mersey in Liverpool, Merseyside. The waves are crashing against the sides of the ferry as it navigates through wind and wave, showcasing the power and unpredictability of nature.
Taken in 1928 by Grenville Collins, this image transports us back to a time when steam ferryboats were a common mode of transportation across the river. The photograph exudes a sense of nostalgia for an era gone by, where ferries were essential for connecting communities on opposite banks.
The turbulent waters captured in this image serve as a reminder of the challenges faced by sailors and passengers alike when crossing such treacherous conditions. Despite the rough seas, the ferry appears to be forging ahead with determination and resilience.
This print is not just a snapshot in time but also a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance in overcoming obstacles. It encapsulates both the beauty and danger inherent in maritime travel, making it a captivating piece that evokes emotions of awe and admiration for those who braved these waters nearly a century ago.
