EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the United States Navy's battleship Wyoming making her way through the Miraflores Lock of the Panama Canal during a historic passage from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean, around 1915. The Wyoming, a pre-dreadnought armored cruiser, was one of the largest warships of her time, measuring over 450 feet in length and displacing over 12,000 tons. The Panama Canal, completed in 1914, revolutionized maritime transportation by allowing ships to traverse the narrow isthmus of Panama and save the lengthy and treacherous journey around the southern tip of South America. The Wyoming's passage through the canal marked a significant moment in naval history, as it demonstrated the United States' growing naval power and its ability to project force across the world's oceans. The photograph shows the Wyoming dwarfed by the massive locks, which were designed to accommodate the largest ships of the time. The steamships in the background, also making their way through the canal, add to the sense of scale and bustle. The water churns with the movement of the ships, and the sky is filled with a mix of sunlight and clouds, creating a dramatic and dynamic scene. This photograph is a testament to the engineering marvel of the Panama Canal and the power and majesty of the United States Navy's warships. It offers a glimpse into a bygone era of maritime transportation and naval history, and serves as a reminder of the enduring importance of waterways in shaping global commerce and military strategy.
