EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts a boxing match taking place on the deck of the U.S.S. Oregon during the second round, between 1896 and 1901. The U.S.S. Oregon was a pre-dreadnought battleship of the United States Navy, renowned for its impressive size and firepower. The image captures the raw energy and determination of the sailors engaged in the match, their focused expressions and tense postures reflecting the intensity of the moment. The setting, with the battleship's towering masts and intricate rigging in the background, underscores the unique blend of military might and everyday life aboard a naval vessel during this era. The photograph, a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, was taken by an unknown photographer and is part of the extensive collection of the Library of Congress. The image offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating insight into the lives of the sailors who manned these historic warships and the recreational activities that helped them cope with the rigors of naval life.
