EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print titled "Yard no. 647, Baikal" takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a moment in history when the icebreaking train ferry steamer Baikal was in service. The painting depicted in this image showcases the immense power and beauty of this remarkable vessel. Built at Walker in 1896 by W. G. Armstrong Whitworth and Co. Ltd. , Newcastle upon Tyne, the Baikal was an engineering marvel of its time. Its purpose was to navigate through icy waters, breaking the frozen barriers with ease, allowing for efficient transportation between Russia and Britain. The print transports us to Sunderland Museum & Winter Gardens in Tyne & Wear, UK where it is preserved as part of their collection. It serves as a testament to British industrial prowess and innovation during that era. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the significance of transport systems like these which connected nations across vast distances. The Baikal represents not only a technological triumph but also symbolizes the spirit of exploration and adventure that characterized that period. Through this photograph print captured by an English photographer from Bridgeman Images, we are granted a glimpse into history - witnessing how industry shaped our world while marveling at the sheer magnificence of human ingenuity on display aboard Yard no. 647, Baikal.
