EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph by Nathaniel Currier, titled "Clipper Ship Comet, 1855" transports us to a tumultuous scene in the middle of the ocean. The print depicts the majestic sailing ship, Clipper Ship Comet, battling against a raging hurricane off the coast of Bermuda. The artist's skillful use of lithography brings out every detail of this maritime disaster. The stormy exterior is beautifully captured with crashing waves and dark clouds looming overhead. The ship itself appears small and vulnerable amidst the vastness of the sea scape. One can almost feel the intensity and power of nature as it unleashes its fury upon this brave vessel. Currier's lithograph not only showcases his artistic talent but also serves as a historical record of transportation during that era. The clipper ships were renowned for their speed and efficiency in carrying goods across long distances. However, they were no match for Mother Nature's wrath when faced with such treacherous conditions. This particular print from Granger Art on Demand is a testament to Currier's ability to capture both beauty and danger in one image. It serves as a reminder of humanity's constant struggle against natural forces beyond our control. As we gaze upon this lithograph, we are reminded of the bravery and resilience exhibited by sailors who risked their lives navigating through unpredictable waters. It stands as an enduring symbol of human determination in face adversity - an eternal tribute to those who dared to sail into storms like these.
