EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Union Companys Screw Steam-Ship Teuton" takes us back to the maritime world of the late 19th century. Created by Charles Auguste Loye, a talented French illustrator, this print showcases the ill-fated ship in all its glory. The Teuton was a mail steamship owned by the Union Company, known for its reliable transportation services across various coastal regions. However, fate had something else in store for this vessel as it met its tragic end off the coast of South Africa. In this detailed illustration, Loye skillfully captures the essence of both beauty and devastation. The ship is depicted wrecked on Quoin Point near Cape Agulhas, with waves crashing against its hull. The coastline serves as a dramatic backdrop to this scene of despair. As we gaze upon this artwork from a private collection, we are transported back in time to witness an important moment in maritime history. This image not only reflects on the power and unpredictability of nature but also pays tribute to those who braved these treacherous waters. Loye's talent shines through his intricate lines and attention to detail, making every aspect of this engraving come alive. It is truly remarkable how art can capture moments frozen in time and evoke emotions that transcend centuries.
