EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the historic moment when the SS Amerique, a French Trans-Atlantic steamship and one of the fastest of its time, was being towed into Plymouth, Devon, in December 1874. The SS Amerique, a marvel of engineering and technology, had set sail from Le Havre, France, and was making its way to its final destination in the United States. The image, published by ILN (Illustrated London News), showcases the steamship's impressive size and stature as it is towed into the English harbor. The SS Amerique was renowned for its speed, having completed the trans-Atlantic crossing in just 12 days and 18 hours, a remarkable feat for the time. The engraving provides a glimpse into the history of trans-Atlantic travel during the late 19th century. The SS Amerique was not only a symbol of French pride but also a testament to the advancements in steamship technology. Its arrival in Plymouth marked the end of a successful voyage and the beginning of its journey to become a legend in maritime history. The SS Amerique's visit to Plymouth was a significant event, attracting much attention from the local population and the press. The image serves as a reminder of the excitement and curiosity that surrounded the arrival of such magnificent vessels in the port city of Devon. This engraving is a valuable historical record of a bygone era, providing insights into the maritime world of the late 19th century and the role of steamships in connecting the Old World with the New World.
