EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour lithograph print by Thomas Somerfield depicts the dramatic scene of an old packet boat under attack at sea. The artist's attention to detail and use of vibrant colours bring this historical moment to life, showcasing the perilous nature of maritime travel in the early 20th century.
The image is part of a series illustrating "Wonders of the Post" related by Edith Robarts and published by Blackie in 1915. It offers a glimpse into the communication methods of the time, highlighting the importance of postal services in connecting people across great distances.
As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back to a time when packet boats were essential for delivering mail and parcels efficiently. The turbulent waters surrounding the vessel add a sense of urgency and danger to the scene, emphasizing the challenges faced by those who worked at sea.
Through Somerfield's skilled hand, we can almost hear the crashing waves and feel the tension in the air as this old packet boat fights against its attackers. This print serves as a reminder of both past struggles and technological advancements that have shaped our modern world.
