EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photo print, we are transported back to the harrowing events of September 12,1922. The image captures Captain Day of the SS Kinfaun Castle, a survivor of the sinking liner horror, standing proudly with his two sons by his side. The solemn expressions on their faces tell a story of resilience and strength in the face of unimaginable tragedy. As survivors from one family among many affected by this devastating event, they serve as a symbol of hope amidst despair. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of nostalgia and timelessness to the photograph, allowing us to connect with these brave individuals who lived through such a momentous era in history. It serves as a reminder that even in our darkest hours, there is always light at the end of the tunnel. This image was captured by Central News, showcasing their ability to document significant moments that shape our collective memory. Through Europeana Photography's preservation efforts, we are able to glimpse into this particular chapter in maritime history. As we reflect upon this powerful snapshot from the 1920s - an era marked by both progress and adversity - let us honor those who survived against all odds and remember their stories for generations to come.
