AMERICAs CUP, 1886 - A Historic Salute on the High Seas
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This color lithograph by Currier & Ives transports us back to a momentous event in American maritime history. The image captures the exhilarating first race of the America's Cup held on September 7,1886, off the coast of New York. In this scene, we witness an awe-inspiring display of sailing prowess as two majestic vessels dominate the frame. The Mayflower, representing the United States and serving as its defender in this prestigious competition, gracefully crosses the bow of Galatea during their fourth tack. As it does so, a fleet of accompanying ships salutes this remarkable feat. The Mayflower stands tall with its wooden mast reaching for the sky while Galatea glides alongside as a worthy challenger. Both yachts showcase their sleek designs and impressive sails against a backdrop of shimmering blue waters and clear skies. This lithograph not only captures a thrilling moment in time but also symbolizes American excellence and determination. It serves as a testament to our nation's love affair with sailing and our quest for victory on international waters. Preserved through time by The Granger Collection, this artwork allows us to relive an era when sailboats ruled supreme and fierce competitions like these captivated audiences around the world.
