EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Archibald Standish Hartrick, titled "The Manning of Armed Cruisers, Lascars at Work on the P and O Steamer 'Himalaya'" offers a glimpse into the bustling activity aboard one of the vessels selected under the Admiralty Scheme. The scene depicts a group of hardworking lascars diligently carrying out their duties on board the magnificent steamship. In this intricate illustration, we witness these skilled sailors from India known as lascars engaged in various tasks essential to maintaining and operating the armed cruisers. Their presence highlights both their significant contribution to maritime operations and their integral role in British naval history. The grandeur of the P&O Steamer 'Himalaya' is evident through its imposing stature and meticulous attention to detail captured by Hartrick's masterful hand. The artist skillfully portrays every aspect of life onboard, from crew members meticulously attending to ropes and rigging to others tending to machinery or navigating through narrow passageways. Hartrick's work not only showcases his artistic prowess but also serves as a historical document that sheds light on an era when steamers played a vital role in global trade and defense strategies. This print provides us with a unique window into maritime history, reminding us of the immense efforts put forth by individuals like these lascars who dedicated themselves tirelessly for safe voyages across vast oceans.
