EDITORS COMMENTS
This 8 x 10 inch photograph captures the U.S.S. Olympia in the late 1890s or early 1900s, during its service with the United States Navy. The U.S.S. Olympia was a protected cruiser, commissioned in 1895, and was one of the most advanced warships of its time. The image shows the vessel anchored at a naval base, with personnel and equipment visible on the deck. The U.S.S. Olympia was known for its distinctive black hull and white superstructure, which can be seen clearly in this photograph. The ship's powerful steam engines and advanced weaponry made it a formidable presence on the water, and it saw action in the Spanish-American War in 1898. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the history of the U.S. Navy and the technological advancements of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The image is believed to be a dry plate or glass negative, and is part of the extensive collection of historical photographs at the Library of Congress.
