EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Paul Ellis, we are transported to the serene beauty of Queenstown in New Zealand. The steam ship Earnslaw gracefully rests on the tranquil waters of Lake Wakatipu, creating a picturesque scene that is nothing short of breathtaking. Named after the majestic mountain that overlooks the lake, Earnslaw holds a significant place in history as the sole remaining coal-fired steamship carrying passengers in the Southern Hemisphere. Its vintage charm and timeless elegance make it an iconic symbol of maritime heritage. As we gaze at this remarkable image, our eyes are drawn to the stunning backdrop of mountains surrounding Queenstown. Their towering presence adds depth and grandeur to an already awe-inspiring landscape. It's as if nature itself has conspired with man-made marvels to create a visual masterpiece. Paul Ellis skillfully captures not only the physical beauty but also evokes a sense of tranquility and nostalgia through his lens. This photograph invites us to immerse ourselves in its serenity, momentarily escaping from our busy lives into a world where time seems to stand still. Whether you have visited Queenstown or dreamt about it from afar, this print serves as a reminder of its unmatched natural splendor and rich cultural heritage. It encapsulates everything that makes New Zealand truly unique – pristine lakes, rugged mountains, and historic treasures like Earnslaw – all waiting to be explored and cherished for generations to come.
