HMS New Zealand: A Historic Moment in Durban Harbour, 1913 This evocative photograph captures the majestic presence of HMS New Zealand as it anchors in Durban Harbour in 1913. The battlecruiser, commissioned in 1911, was the first capital ship of the Royal Navy to bear the name New Zealand. Its arrival in South Africa was a significant moment in the history of the British Empire and the relationship between Britain and its Dominion. The HMS New Zealand was a formidable vessel, measuring 182 meters in length and displacing over 15,000 tons. Armed with a main battery of ten 13.5-inch guns, it was a powerful symbol of the British naval might that protected the Empire's interests around the world. The photograph shows the ship in all its glory, with its white hull gleaming in the sunlight and its sails unfurled, ready to set sail once again. The harbour is bustling with activity, with other ships and boats dotted around the scene, adding to the sense of energy and movement. The visit of HMS New Zealand to Durban was an occasion for celebration, and the photograph captures the excitement of the crowd gathered on the shore. The people of Durban turned out in their thousands to welcome the ship and its crew, and the event was marked by a grand reception and a parade through the streets of the city. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into a bygone era of maritime history. It is a reminder of the important role that the Royal Navy played in shaping the world during the early 20th century, and the enduring bond between Britain and its Dominions.
