EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dating between 1894 and 1901, depicts the U.S.S. Columbia, accompanied by a company of marines. The U.S.S. Columbia was a cruiser of the United States Navy, commissioned in 1894 and decommissioned in 1901. The image captures a moment in time as the marines, dressed in their full uniforms, prepare for a parade or inspection. The U.S.S. Columbia, a symbol of American naval power, is anchored in the background, its massive form dwarfing the soldiers. This glass negative, measuring 8 x 10 inches, was taken by an unknown photographer and is part of the collections at the Library of Congress. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of military preparation and naval warfare. The dry plate process, a common photographic technique of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, adds to the historical significance of the photograph. This image is a testament to the rich history of the United States Navy and the Marine Corps, and serves as a reminder of the important role they played in the country's past and continued presence on the global stage.
