EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the majestic era of sailing ships. The image showcases the iconic Cutty Sark, a historic tea clipper that was built in 1869 and now resides proudly in dry dock at Greenwich, London. Damian Grady skillfully captures the grandeur of this magnificent vessel from an aerial perspective. The photograph was taken in September 2012, just months after the Cutty Sark had been reopened as a visitor attraction following an extensive restoration project. This significant event marked a new chapter for this legendary ship, allowing visitors to step aboard and immerse themselves in its rich history. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported to an era when tea clippers ruled the seas, carrying precious cargo across vast oceans. The intricate details of the ship's masts and rigging are beautifully highlighted against a backdrop of clear blue skies. Damian Grady's expert composition not only captures the sheer size and elegance of the Cutty Sark but also evokes a sense of adventure and leisure associated with maritime exploration. It serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with seafaring vessels that have shaped our world. This stunning print is not just a piece of art; it is an invitation to embark on a journey through time - one that allows us to appreciate both the craftsmanship involved in creating such masterpieces and their lasting impact on global trade and transportation.
