EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts the U.S.S. Monongahela, an American cruiser that served in the United States Navy between 1890 and 1901. The exact date of this image is unknown, but it is believed to have been taken around the turn of the 20th century. The U.S.S. Monongahela was a protected cruiser, meaning it was designed to be both a combatant and a transport vessel. It was named after the Monongahela River in Pennsylvania and was the second ship to bear this name in the U.S. Navy. The photograph was taken using a dry plate negative process on glass, specifically a 8 x 10 inch format. The image shows the U.S.S. Monongahela anchored in a body of water, with its sails furled and its guns pointed towards the shore. The ship's intricate details are clearly visible in the high-quality photograph, from the ornate design on its smokestacks to the individual planks of its wooden deck. The U.S.S. Monongahela played an important role in the early history of the United States Navy, participating in various naval exercises and missions during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It is a testament to the technological advancements of the time and the ingenuity of those who designed and built it. This photograph is part of the extensive collection of the Library of Congress, located in Washington D.C. It is a valuable historical artifact that provides a glimpse into the past and the rich maritime history of the United States. The photographer of this image is unknown, but their work captures the essence of a bygone era and the majesty of the U.S.S. Monongahela in all its glory.
