EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph captures a moment in time as the crew of the U.S.S. New York engage in a single stick exercise between 1893 and 1901. The U.S.S. New York was a cruiser in the United States Navy during this period, and this image offers a unique glimpse into the daily life and training routines of the sailors aboard the ship. Single stick exercises were a form of martial arts training used in the Navy to improve agility, coordination, and combat readiness. The sailors are seen wielding cudgels, or single sticks, in a drill that likely involved sparring and blocking techniques. The photograph was taken using a dry plate glass negative process, a common photographic technique of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The image is a testament to the dedication and discipline of the sailors who served on the U.S.S. New York during this era. It also provides a fascinating insight into the naval warfare practices of the time, as well as the broader cultural and historical context of the late 19th and early 20th centuries in the United States. The photograph is held in the collections of the Library of Congress, a treasure trove of historical images and documents that chronicle the rich heritage of the United States. The identity of the photographer remains unknown, adding to the mystery and intrigue of this image.
