This is not a painting. One of my favorite historical photos of all time. The photograph was taken in 1911 by Francis James (FJ) Mortimer FRPS (1874-1944) a pioneer of pictorial photography. The sea his favorite subject, captured the shipwreck Arden Craig, a three-mast wheat ship that crashed into the rocks with nine feet of water after the captain became disorientated in heavy fog.

A photograph by Francis J. Mortimer, a British photographer from the late 19th to early 20th centuries. This is the wreck or the Arden Craig off the Scilly Isles, England in 1911 and Mortimer is approaching in a rescue boat. Though known for his pictorial style this one crosses genres into early photojournalism while maintaining the mystique and romanticism of life on the seas.

ROUND 2 - GOTH
Tumblr media
As a recap, last round, Dina and Mortimer got married and despite a rocky start to their marriage, welcomed twin boys, Francis and James. I toyed with Alexander not liking Dina and demanding she be removed from the home, but I didn’t think that made much sense with him being happy for his dad and stepmother getting married. I think he’s more upset that Mortimer found Bella completely moved on with a new family, since she just popped out Don’s second baby.
Tumblr media
Dina very quickly gets tired of housework and hires a butler to keep everything running smoothly. She wondered why the Goths didn’t already have one, unless Cassandra was content with doing the cleaning.
Tumblr media
The butler’s first order of business was making some lunch for the household. I guess their marriage is going really well if Dina’s comfortable just letting it rip while Mortimer’s still eating, god bless her.
Tumblr media
Alexander seems very happy with his new stepmother, and tries to block out his old mother who abandoned them. He’s not really acting out, he’s just a little depressed as he comes to terms with his new life.

Francis J. Mortimer • Seagulls at rough sea, 1913 This rare mezzotint gravure on thick art paper is one of the best oeuvre by pictorialist photographer Francis James Mortimer (British, 1874- 1944) Mortimer was a yachtsman, and is best known for his dramatic seascapes. He became a member of the prestigious "Linked Ring" in 1907 and he often combined negatives for photo-montage as is also obvious in this image

Francis James Mortimer (1874-1944) foi um pioneiro da fotografia pictórica. O mar era seu assunto favorito e ele capturou o naufrágio (1911) do Arden Craig, navio de três mastros com carregamento de trigo: o capitão ficou desorientado numa forte neblina e bateu num rochedo em St Agnes, Isles of Scilly-UK.
