EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in French maritime history. The image showcases the magnificent ocean liner, France, as it embarks on its inaugural journey with passengers from Le Havre to Southampton on January 7,1962. Standing proudly beside the France is its aging fleet mate Libert, providing a striking contrast between past and present. The France was an iconic vessel constructed by the renowned Chantiers de l'Atlantique shipyard in Saint-Nazaire. Launched on May 11,1960, this prestigious ocean liner began service in February 1961 and quickly became synonymous with luxury travel across the Atlantic. Offering regular transatlantic crossings lasting six days and nights, as well as enchanting winter cruises and two world circumnavigations, the France epitomized elegance and grandeur. In later years, this legendary ship underwent a transformation and was renamed SS Norway before predominantly serving Norwegian Cruise Line's cruise itineraries. However, this photograph immortalizes its early glory days under its original name. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot of maritime heritage captured by Agence France-Presse (AFP), we are transported back to an era when ocean liners were symbols of opulence and adventure. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity in creating vessels that seamlessly combined functionality with beauty—a true marvel of engineering that continues to inspire awe even today.
