EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the moment the Empress of Asia liner gracefully enters Vancouver Harbour, British Columbia, in the early 1920s. The Empress of Asia was a prominent ocean liner of the era, known for its luxurious amenities and transpacific voyages. As it sailed along the Western Canadian coast, the ship's majestic silhouette against the backdrop of the Pacific Ocean was a sight to behold for locals and travellers alike. The image showcases the natural beauty of Vancouver's harbour, with its tranquil waters reflecting the clear blue sky and the surrounding mountains adding a picturesque backdrop. The Empress of Asia, with its elegant design and impressive size, dominates the scene, embodying the spirit of adventure and exploration that defined the era. The 1920s, also known as the Roaring Twenties, was a time of significant cultural and social change. This photograph serves as a reminder of the era's glamour and excitement, as well as the vital role that maritime transportation played in connecting people and communities across the globe. The Empress of Asia's arrival in Vancouver marked the beginning of a new journey for its passengers, who were eager to explore the wonders of British Columbia and beyond. This photograph not only captures a moment in history but also evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era, where the world seemed a little smaller, and the possibilities seemed endless.
