EDITORS COMMENTS
This 8 x 10 inch photograph captures the aftermath of the Battle of Santiago de Cuba during the Spanish-American War in 1898. The image, taken between 1898 and 1901, depicts the wreck of the Spanish battleship Vizcaya, which was sunk during the naval engagement in Santiago de Cuba, Cuba. The exact creator of this photograph is unknown, but it is believed to have been taken by either Edwin H. Husher or William A. Livingstone, both of whom were known to document the Spanish-American War for Congressional Library and Detroit Publishing Company. The Vizcaya, a proud symbol of Spanish naval power, lies broken and abandoned in the shallow waters off the Cuban coast. The once majestic battleship, with its intricate details and grandeur, now reduced to a mere shadow of its former self, serves as a stark reminder of the devastating impact of the Battle of Santiago de Cuba. The photograph, taken in the aftermath of the battle, provides a glimpse into the geographical and historical significance of the event, which marked a turning point in the Spanish-American War and the rise of the United States as a global power. The image, which is believed to be a dry plate negative or glass negative, captures the essence of the era, with the black and white tones adding to the somber mood and the sense of history unfolding. The photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of historical and heritage art, and serves as a reminder of the naval warfare and transportation that played a crucial role in shaping the world during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
