EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dating back to the late 19th century, depicts the U.S.S. Brooklyn, specifically the Ensign Roys, anchored at an unknown location between 1896 and 1899. The U.S.S. Brooklyn was a cruiser of the Brooklyn class, which was the first class of armored cruisers built for the United States Navy. The ship's impressive size and stature are evident in this image, as it towers over the men standing on the dock. The focus of the photograph, however, is the group of sailors and officers gathered on the deck of the Brooklyn. They are dressed in their full naval uniforms, complete with hats, coats, and trousers. The crispness of their apparel speaks to the discipline and pride of the U.S. Navy during this era. The sailors and officers stand at attention, some gazing out at the water, while others engage in conversation. The image captures a moment of camaraderie and unity among the crew. The photograph was taken using a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, and the details of the men's uniforms and the ship's features are remarkably clear. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of the United States Navy and the men who served aboard its ships during the late 19th century. It is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the daily life of a naval crew during a time of significant technological advancements and naval expansion.
