Since 1883, four generations of the Beken family have dedicated
themselves to marine photography, creating the most artistic images
of sailboats ever shot and even receiving a Royal Warrant of
Excellence. This extraordinary selection of work from the Beken
Marine Photography Archive traces the evolution of their
unsurpassable style. For every rare and legendary picture, and
every yacht, theres a captivating accompanying story.
First published in 1768, this remarkable collection of
sophisticated line drawings offers a fascinating treatise for model
builders, naval historians, and maritime enthusiasts. Documenting
merchant and naval ships from various countries, it features 70
illustrations that chart vessel dimensions, crew size, storage
capabilities, and manner of rigging.
