Trilby, June 30, 1896: A Scene from a Detroit Regatta This photograph, titled "Trilby, June 30, 1896," was captured by the skilled lens of Lycurgus S. Glover. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of leisure and competition on the waters of the United States. The photograph depicts a serene scene on a tranquil body of water, likely a lake or a large river. Several sailboats, their sails billowing in the wind, dot the horizon. Among them, the yacht "Trilby" stands out, its elegant design and tall mast making it the center of attention. The boat's name, "Trilby," is emblazoned on its side, adding a touch of personalization to the vessel. The scene is bustling with activity, as crew members prepare their boats for the upcoming regatta. Some are busy adjusting sails, while others are engaged in animated conversations with their competitors. The anticipation of the race is palpable in the air, adding to the excitement of the moment. The photograph was taken during the 1890s, a time when yachting and sailing were popular pastimes for the affluent classes in America. The Detroit Publishing Company, a leading publisher of the era, captured and preserved moments like these, making them accessible to a wider audience. This dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in image, created by Lycurgus S. Glover, is now part of the vast collection at the Library of Congress. It serves as a testament to the rich heritage of American history and the enduring appeal of water sports.
