Cowes Yacht: A Glimpse into the Thrilling World of Sailing in 1922". This print transports us back to August 1922, during Cowes Yachting Week on the picturesque Isle of Wight. The image showcases the magnificent R H Lees cutter Terpsichore gracefully gliding through the English Channel waters, its sails billowing in the wind. With no people visible in this portrait-style photograph, all attention is drawn to the vessel itself. The Terpsichore stands tall and proud, a symbol of elegance and power. Its sleek design and impeccable craftsmanship are evident even in this monochromatic format. The historical significance of this moment cannot be understated.
