EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white glass negative photograph, dating back to the late 19th century, captures the U.S.S. New York, also known as "Mike," proudly decorated for the anniversary of the Battle of Santiago de Cuba on July 3, 1899. The U.S. Navy battleship, which served as a powerful symbol of American military might during the Spanish-American War, is adorned with various decorations and flags, commemorating the significant victory in the Caribbean. Sailors and crewmen, dressed in their uniforms, can be seen standing on the deck, some with their dogs by their side. The presence of the canines adds a unique touch to the image, reflecting the camaraderie and companionship among the crew. The U.S.S. New York, a formidable cruiser, was one of the key vessels in the naval warfare during the Spanish-American War. Its participation in the Battle of Santiago de Cuba marked a turning point in the conflict, leading to the eventual defeat of Spanish forces in Cuba and the end of the war. This historic photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, is now part of the extensive collection at the Library of Congress. It serves as a valuable reminder of the rich naval history of the United States and the courage and determination of the men who served aboard these ships during times of war.
