EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dating between 1891 and 1901, depicts an intriguing sword exercise taking place on the deck of the U.S.S. Newark. The U.S.S. Newark was a cruiser that served in the United States Navy during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The crew members, dressed in their naval uniforms, can be seen intently focused on their training, engaging in a synchronized display of swordsmanship. The image captures the essence of the naval warfare era, with the vast expanse of the ocean as a backdrop and the Newark's impressive silhouette towering behind the men. The photograph, which is a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, was taken by an unknown photographer, likely during a routine training exercise. The men, with their swords at the ready, appear to be practicing their blade skills with precision and determination. The image is a testament to the rigorous training regimen that was a crucial aspect of naval life during this time period. The U.S.S. Newark, which was commissioned in 1892, served in various capacities throughout its career, including as a transport ship during the Spanish-American War. This photograph, now a part of the collections at the Library of Congress, provides a fascinating glimpse into the daily life and training routines of the sailors and crewmen of the U.S.S. Newark during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
