EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "U.S.S. Oregon in Dry Dock, Brooklyn Navy Yard, 1898 Aug-Oct," captures the impressive sight of the U.S.S. Oregon as it undergoes maintenance in the Graving Dock of the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Taken by Edward H. Hart, the image dates back to the late 19th century and offers a glimpse into the industrial might of the United States Navy during the era of pre-dreadnought battleships. The U.S.S. Oregon, an Indiana-class battleship, is seen here in a state of repose, surrounded by the hustle and bustle of the busy navy yard. Workers can be seen in the foreground, engaged in various tasks related to the upkeep of the vessel. A large awning, or sun blind, provides shelter from the elements, while a crowd of onlookers gathers at the edge of the dock, taking in the spectacle. The ship's distinctive features are on full display, including its imposing size, armored turrets, and the intricate details of its rigging and machinery. The image is a testament to the ingenuity and craftsmanship of the naval shipbuilding industry during this period, as well as the importance of maintaining a strong naval presence. This photograph, which measures 8 x 10 inches and was taken using a dry plate negative process, is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the daily operations of the Brooklyn Navy Yard during a time of significant naval expansion and modernization. It is now part of the collections of the Library of Congress, a testament to its enduring historical significance.
