EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the bustling city of Newcastle-On-Tyne in 1887. The focal point is the majestic HMS Victoria, proudly moored on the River Tyne. This warship, lead ship in her class, exudes power and strength against the scenic backdrop of England's landscape. The artist M Aunty masterfully captures a moment in time where transportation takes center stage. People from all walks of life gather along the riverbank to witness this awe-inspiring sight. Men, women, and children form a diverse crowd that adds depth and liveliness to the scene. As we delve into this snapshot of history, we can almost smell the thick black smoke billowing from HMS Victoria's chimneys. It serves as a reminder of an era when steam-powered ships ruled water transport. The monochrome aesthetic enhances our perception of this Victorian-era gem while adding a touch of nostalgia to its portrayal. The elevated view allows us to appreciate not only the grandeur of HMS Victoria but also provides an aerial perspective over Newcastle-Upon-Tyne itself. This remarkable print is more than just art; it is a window into another time—a testament to human ingenuity and exploration during one of Britain's most transformative periods. Thanks to Cassell and Company Ltd. , who published "Sights and Scenes in England and Wales" we are fortunate enough to have access to such historical treasures like this one captured by M Aunty for generations to come.
