EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing a dedicated lifeboat crew ready for service. Published in The London Illustrated News in 1881, this archival image captures the essence of these brave individuals who selflessly put their lives on the line to save others. The crew members stand tall and prepared, exuding an air of determination and resilience. Each member is dressed in naval attire, highlighting their affiliation with the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI). These unpaid volunteers embody the true spirit of charity and service as they risk everything to rescue those in distress at sea. The historical significance of this illustration cannot be overstated. It offers a glimpse into a bygone era when lifesavers relied on sheer courage and skill rather than modern technology. This vintage picture serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of maritime safety. Ken Welsh's masterful engraving brings this scene to life, capturing every intricate detail with precision. As we admire this piece, let us pay homage to all those unsung heroes who have dedicated themselves to saving lives throughout history. Their noble occupation continues to inspire generations even today
