EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic British ocean liner, RMS Lusitania, as it gracefully sails along the Hudson River in New York during the historic Hudson-Fulton Celebration of 1909. Published in The Book of Ships around 1920, this archival image transports us back to a bygone era of steam-powered transportation. The grandeur of this magnificent vessel is evident as it glides through the water with effortless elegance. With its towering masts and sleek design, the RMS Lusitania stands as a testament to both engineering prowess and maritime artistry. As one of the largest passenger liners of its time, this iconic ship symbolizes an era when transatlantic travel was at its peak. Its historical significance cannot be understated, especially considering that just a few years later in 1915, tragedy would strike when it was tragically sunk by a German U-boat during World War I. This beautifully detailed illustration showcases not only the craftsmanship involved in creating such a vessel but also highlights America's role as an important hub for international maritime trade and travel. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of technological advancements while honoring our rich nautical heritage. Whether you are an avid history enthusiast or simply appreciate stunning imagery from days gone by, this remarkable print offers a glimpse into an extraordinary moment captured on film over a century ago.
