EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts the superstructure deck of the U.S.S. Kentucky, an iconic American battleship from the early 1900s. The image, taken between 1900 and 1901, captures a group of men on board the ship, likely members of the United States Navy or Marines, engaged in their duties. The U.S.S. Kentucky was one of the first battleships built by the U.S. Navy, and her impressive size and firepower made her a formidable presence on the water. The photograph, a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, was taken by an unknown photographer, possibly Edwin H. Husher or William A. Livingstone, and was later acquired by the Library of Congress. The image provides a unique glimpse into the daily life of naval personnel during this era, offering a window into the past and the rich history of the United States Armed Forces. The U.S.S. Kentucky was launched in 1900 and served in the Atlantic Fleet until 1919. She saw action in the Mexican Revolution and the First World War, making this photograph an important historical artifact that speaks to the courage and dedication of the men and women who served in the United States Navy and Marines during this period. The image is a testament to the country's maritime heritage and the vital role that naval warfare and transportation played in the history of the United States.
