EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dating back to the early 1900s, showcases the majestic U.S.S. Texas and the steamboat Whisper gracefully passing each other on the water. The U.S.S. Texas, a battleship of the United States Navy, is proudly displayed with its full regalia, adorned with bunting and flags, as it sails through the tranquil waters. In contrast, the Whisper, a steam-powered steamboat, appears old-fashioned yet charming, emitting a plume of smoke from its stack. The image, captured using a dry plate negative or glass negative process, offers a glimpse into the rich maritime history of America during the 1900s. The photograph is a testament to the country's naval prowess and the evolution of transportation methods. The U.S.S. Texas, a symbol of the United States' naval warfare capabilities, and the Whisper, an embodiment of the era's steam-powered transportation, make for an intriguing juxtaposition in this historic photograph. This image, from the collections of the Library of Congress, is a valuable addition to any collection of American heritage art or historical photography.
