EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "U.S.S. New York, Forecastle Deck from Aloft, between 1893 and 1901," captures an aerial view of the U.S.S. New York, an armored cruiser of the United States Navy. The image was taken from an elevated position, providing a unique perspective of the ship's forecastle deck. The U.S.S. New York, built by the Cramps Shipyard in Philadelphia and commissioned in 1893, was one of the most advanced warships of its time. The photograph, taken between 1893 and 1901, depicts a group of sailors lying on the deck, engaged in various activities. Some are seen transporting equipment, while others are resting or socializing. The crew members are dressed in their uniforms, adding to the historic feel of the image. The U.S.S. New York was a formidable battleship, with a displacement of over 6,000 tons and armed with a battery of 12-inch and 6-inch guns. The ship saw action in the Spanish-American War and the Philippine-American War, earning a reputation as a powerful and effective naval vessel. This photograph, taken by William H. Jackson, is a testament to the daily life of the sailors on board the U.S.S. New York during this era. The image is a valuable historical record, providing insight into naval warfare and the lives of sailors during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in. image is part of the Edwin H. Husher Collection in the Library of Congress.
