EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Orient Line Steamship Ormuz, a true marvel of 19th-century maritime engineering. The engraving, created by an English School artist, beautifully captures the grandeur and power of this iconic vessel. In this image, we witness the Ormuz passing through a breathtaking landscape as it embarks on its full voyage from Australia to its home port. The ship's imposing presence dominates the scene as it navigates through the Suez Canal and the treacherous Straits of Bab-el-Mandeb. The artist skillfully depicts the turbulent weather conditions that often accompanied these voyages, with stormy waves crashing against the sides of the ship. Despite facing gales and challenging sea currents, the Ormuz stands strong and resolute in its mission to transport passengers and cargo safely across vast distances. This engraving originally appeared in The Illustrated London News on May 14th, 1887 - a testament to how widely celebrated and admired this remarkable steamship was during its time. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back in time to an era when steamships like Ormuz were at their zenith - symbols of human ingenuity conquering nature's obstacles. This artwork serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with exploration and our unwavering determination to connect distant lands through maritime endeavors.
