EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 20th century, offering a glimpse into the world of maritime travel aboard the RMS Olympic. The image showcases the third-class entrance and companionway of this magnificent ship, which was part of the renowned White Star Line fleet. As we gaze upon this scene, we cannot help but draw parallels to its sister ships, Titanic and Britannic, both famous for their tragic fates. However, in this moment frozen in time, we are reminded that before those ill-fated journeys took place, these vessels were symbols of luxury and elegance. Commissioned by the White Star Line itself – also known as the Oceanic Steam Navigation Company – this photograph captures an everyday scene at Southampton docks. It is a testament to Bedford Lemere and Company's exceptional talent for capturing historical moments with remarkable clarity. The composition invites us to imagine what life must have been like for passengers embarking on their transatlantic voyages from this very spot. We can almost hear their excited chatter and feel their anticipation as they descended through these corridors towards new adventures across vast oceans. In preserving such images from our past, Historic England Archive allows us to connect with history on a deeply personal level. This particular photograph serves as a poignant reminder of an era when ocean liners represented not only transportation but also dreams of exploration and discovery.
