EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "Ship, 1913" by Harris & Ewing, captures the majestic presence of the U.S.S. New York as it sits at anchor in Hampton Roads on December 10, 1916. The image is a testament to the technological prowess of the United States Navy during the early 20th century and the onset of the First World War. The U.S.S. New York was a pre-dreadnought battleship commissioned by the United States Congress in 1911. With a displacement of over 17,000 tons and armed with a main battery of twelve 12-inch guns, the New York was a formidable addition to the US Navy's fleet. The photograph was taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio, founded by George H. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in Washington D.C. in 1896. The studio became a leading provider of photographic services to the US government and was known for its high-quality glass negatives. The image shows the New York in all its glory, with its massive hull, towering smokestacks, and intricate details of its deck equipment. The water around the ship is calm, reflecting the serene atmosphere of the Hampton Roads harbor. The photograph is an important historical document, providing a glimpse into the naval warfare of the early 20th century and the United States' role in it. It is a reminder of the technological advancements of the time and the importance of naval power in shaping international relations. The image is part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress and is a valuable addition to any collection of maritime or military history.
