EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts the Brooklyn Navy Yard's dock no. 4 gate, estimated to have been taken between 1910 and 1920. The image offers a glimpse into the rich maritime history of the United States during the 1910s. The Brooklyn Navy Yard, located in Brooklyn, New York, was a significant hub for naval warfare and shipbuilding in the United States. In the photograph, we see the imposing gate of dock no. 4, which leads to a graving dock where ships could be repaired and maintained. The dry dock, with its massive metal doors closed, is dwarfed by the towering battleships and other naval vessels moored at the wharf. The ships, some with American flags proudly flying, are a testament to the country's military strength and industrial prowess during this era. The photograph was taken using a dry plate glass negative, a photographic process that was popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The image, which measures 8 x 10 inches, was likely taken by an unknown photographer, possibly Edwin H. Husher or William A. Livingstone, who were both known to have worked at the Brooklyn Navy Yard during this time. The photograph is now part of the collections of the Library of Congress, a treasure trove of American history and culture. This photograph is not only a beautiful work of art but also a valuable historical document that provides insight into the naval warfare and transportation industries during the early 20th century in the United States.
