EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print from 1866 showcases the aftermath of a devastating shipwreck involving the passengers and crew of the Brig Titania. The wood engraving, created by an American artist, vividly depicts a scene that is both haunting and awe-inspiring. The image suggests that this tragic event may have been caused by a collision with a massive whale, as hinted by the caption. The sheer power and unpredictability of nature are evident in this dramatic encounter between man-made vessel and majestic sea creature. As we examine this historical artifact, we can't help but feel empathy for those involved - survivors clinging to wreckage or desperately seeking refuge on makeshift rafts. Their expressions reflect fear, exhaustion, and uncertainty about their fate amidst the vastness of the ocean.
