EDITORS COMMENTS
"This sepia portrait captures Alexander Montgomery Carlisle, an influential figure in the maritime world as the Managing Director of Harland & Wolff during the early 20th century. Carlisle's importance in Anglo-Irish society is evident from this signed photograph, inscribed below with the endearing note "ever your old father." Carlisle's involvement in the planning, design, and building of the Olympic class liners for the White Star Line left an indelible mark on the transportation industry. His designs included the iconic RMS Titanic, RMS Olympic, and RMS Britannic. The Olympic class liners revolutionized ocean travel, setting new standards for luxury and size. As a middle-aged man with a distinguished air, Carlisle exudes an aura of authority and expertise in this portrait. The businessman's keen intellect and meticulous attention to detail are palpable, making it easy to understand why he was entrusted with such significant projects. This photograph is a testament to the era of grand ocean liners and the men who brought them to life. It serves as a reminder of the ingenuity and vision that shaped the transport industry during the 20th century. The signed note adds a personal touch, making this an invaluable piece of history for collectors and enthusiasts of maritime history." Henry Aldridge & Son Ltd. is proud to offer this rare and captivating portrait from their extensive archive. This photograph is not intended for commercial use, but rather for private collection and appreciation.
