Charlietta: A Timeless Moment in American Maritime History (circa 1895-1900) This photograph, titled 'Charlietta,' transports us back to the late 19th century, an era of innovation and leisure in the United States. Taken by renowned photographer Johns Johnston, this dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in image showcases a serene scene of a sailboat named 'Charlietta' gracefully navigating the waters. The sailboat, with its elegant sails billowing in the wind, is a testament to the beauty and grace of sailing as a popular pastime during this period. The image is further enhanced by the presence of American flags, proudly displayed on the boats and the surrounding area, reflecting the international code of signals used for communication between ships at sea. The steam yachts in the background, with their smokestacks billowing steam, represent the burgeoning transportation industry and the country's growing industrial might. This photograph, held in the prestigious Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the rich heritage of America's maritime history and the diverse range of activities that defined the 19th century. The image is a beautiful reminder of a time when the country's geography, from its vast seas to its picturesque waterways, played a significant role in shaping the nation's identity and culture.
