EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning coloured lithograph captures the majestic clipper ship 'Lightning' in all its glory. The intricate details of the vessel, from its billowing sails to its sleek hull, are brought to life by artist John R. Isaac. The ship, with a tonnage of 1769 tons register, was owned by Messrs James Baines & Co and was a symbol of British maritime power in the 19th century.
The vibrant colours used in this print evoke a sense of adventure and excitement that was synonymous with the age of sail. The 'Lightning' is depicted as it cuts through the waves, ready to take on any challenge that comes its way.
As you gaze upon this image, you can almost hear the creaking of the timbers and feel the salty spray on your face. It serves as a reminder of a time when ships like these were at the forefront of global trade and transportation.
This print is not just a piece of art; it is a window into history, allowing us to glimpse into an era when clipper ships ruled the seas. Displayed proudly in your home or office, it will surely spark conversations and admiration for this iconic mode of transport from centuries past.
