An Historic Event - The Launching of the RMS Queen Mary, September 26,1934
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from 1936, we witness a momentous occasion in British maritime history - the launching of the majestic new liner, the RMS Queen Mary. Captured by an unknown artist and featured in Clarence Winchester's renowned book "Shipping Wonders of the World" this image transports us back to Clydebank, Scotland. Amidst a bustling shipyard at John Brown and Co. , crowds gather under ominous rain clouds to witness this grand spectacle. Men and women alike eagerly await as industry meets royalty on that fateful day. With her regal presence, HM Queen Mary herself graces the scene alongside other notable figures such as Princess Victoria Mary of Teck. The sheer size and elegance of this ocean liner are awe-inspiring; it symbolizes Britain's prowess in transportation during the thirties. As workers prepare for its maiden voyage under Cunard White Star Ltd. , anticipation fills the air. This monochrome portrait captures not only a historical event but also reflects upon an era when shipping was at its peak. The attention to detail is impeccable - every line etched into the vessel's structure tells a story of craftsmanship and innovation. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Heritage Images, we cannot help but marvel at how time has preserved both our fascination with ships and their enduring legacy in global transport.
