EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the elegance and grandeur of the Cafe Parisien on board the RMS Olympic, a iconic ocean liner of the early 20th century. The Cafe Parisien was a popular gathering place for first-class passengers, offering a taste of the sophistication and luxury of Parisian life at sea. The RMS Olympic, built by the White Star Line, or the Oceanic Steam Navigation Company, was the sister ship to the ill-fated Titanic and Britannic. Commissioned by the White Star Line, this Bedford Lemere and Company photograph was likely taken at the Southampton docks during the Olympic's maiden voyage in 1920 or 1921. The Cafe Parisien, with its ornate decor and elegant waiters, provided a refined atmosphere for passengers to enjoy a cup of coffee or a light meal. The large windows offer views of the ocean, adding to the sense of tranquility and relaxation. The photograph also showcases the intricate details of the cafe's design, from the ornate moldings to the elegant table settings. The RMS Olympic was a testament to the advancements in maritime technology and design, and the Cafe Parisien was a reflection of the company's commitment to providing passengers with a luxurious and enjoyable travel experience. The Olympic went on to have a successful career, setting records for speed and passenger capacity before being retired in 1935. This photograph, now held by Historic England Archive, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of glamour and elegance on the high seas.
