EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the tranquil cabin of the elegant yacht Althea, circa 1907-1915. This exquisite photograph, taken by an unknown artist, captures the refined atmosphere of the cabin, filled with an inviting collection of books and cozy furniture. The bookshelves, lined with volumes of literature, speak to the intellectual pursuits of the yacht's passengers during their leisurely voyages. The cabin's interior features a settee, sofa, and armchair, arranged around a low table, inviting relaxation and contemplation. A porthole, framing a stunning view of the sea, adds to the sense of connection with the natural world outside. The yacht Althea, a symbol of affluence and refinement during the early 20th century, was likely owned by an American family or company, such as Detroit Publishing Company, which was known for its high-quality photographic reproductions. This image, taken with a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, is now part of the Library of Congress's vast collection, preserving a piece of America's maritime and literary heritage.
