EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a slip for an insurance policy on the iconic liners Olympic and Titanic. Created with pen and ink by an English School artist in the 20th century, this artwork is now part of a private collection. The slip itself represents a significant historical document, featured as an illustration in Charles Wright and C Ernest Fayle's book, "A History of Lloyds" published by Macmillan in 1928. The image takes us back to early twentieth-century England, where trade and business thrived amidst the bustling city of London. It reminds us of the crucial role that insurance played in insuring goods transport across dangerous waters. The liners Olympic and Titanic symbolize not only vessels but also represent risk, danger, and historic events. As we gaze upon this piece, we are transported to a time when seagoing ships were essential means of transportation for passengers and freight alike. From majestic ocean liners to humble tugboats, these vessels connected people from all walks of life. This print serves as a visual reminder of the rich history behind insurance companies like Lloyds while also highlighting the importance of free trade and corporations in Europe during that era. It encapsulates both the beauty and risks associated with maritime travel while capturing our imagination with its intricate details rendered through pen and ink. Overall, this artwork offers us a glimpse into the past—a testament to human ingenuity in overcoming challenges at sea—and invites us to reflect on how far we have come in terms of transportation safety today.
