EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between 1893 and 1901, captures the impressive profile view of the U.S.S. New York, an armored cruiser of the United States Navy. The image was created during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a time of significant advancements in naval warfare and technology. The U.S.S. New York, built by the Cramps Shipyard in Philadelphia and commissioned in 1893, was the lead ship of the New York class of armored cruisers. This powerful vessel was equipped with the latest armament, including a main battery of ten 8-inch guns and a secondary battery of twelve 6-inch guns. The photograph, taken from a geographical feature or land location, offers a broadside view of the ship, revealing its imposing size and intricate details. The U.S.S. New York is shown anchored in the calm waters, with a few small sailboats in the background, adding a sense of scale and tranquility to the scene. The photograph was taken by William H. Jackson, a prolific American photographer who documented various aspects of life and industry in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This particular image, a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, is part of the extensive collection of the Library of Congress. The U.S.S. New York served in the Spanish-American War and was later sold for scrap in 1920. Today, this historic photograph serves as a reminder of the rich naval heritage of the United States and the technological innovations that shaped naval warfare during this period.
