Return to the glory days of New England yachting – the
1880s to the 1920s – through poignant images that capture
the area’s maritime history. From the people who made
their living on the sea, to the objects they used and the
vessels that they steered, Essex Image Vault’s maritime
photography collection offers a sampling of uniquely beautiful
images, each of which stands alone as a work of art. As you
browse, consider the skill of the photographers, many of whom
succeeded in creating clear, well-composed images of moving
vessels 8” x 10” or 10” x 12” glass
negatives. Art, science, and history converge in this rare
collection.
