EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dating back to the early 1900s, depicts Rose Dorothea, a triumphant figure in the world of sailing, as she crosses the finish line to claim her victory in the prestigious Lipton Cup Fishermen's Race of 1907. The image, captured by an unknown photographer, showcases Dorothea's determination and skill as she steers her schooner through the choppy waters of the United States, likely off the coast of Massachusetts. The Lipton Cup, named after Sir Thomas Lipton, was a highly coveted trophy in the sailing community, attracting competitors from all corners of the country. Dorothea, hailing from the United States, outperformed her rivals in this thrilling regatta, demonstrating her mastery of the wind and waves. The photograph, taken as a dry plate negative on glass, measures 8 x 10 inches and is a testament to the rich maritime heritage of the time. The image is held in the prestigious collections of the Library of Congress, a national treasure trove of American history and culture. The scene is set against a backdrop of open water, dotted with other sailboats, and the vast expanse of the sea stretches out behind Dorothea, symbolizing the freedom and adventure that sailing offered during this era. The photograph captures a moment in time, frozen in history, and serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of the sea and the thrill of competition.
