EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Yankee" (c1900), showcases a sailing yacht gracefully navigating the coastal waters of the United States during the early 20th century. The yacht, with its distinctive lean and billowing sails, cuts through the windy waves, leaving a trail of white foam in its wake. The image, a dry plate or glass negative, was likely taken during a regatta or sailing competition, as evidenced by the other sailing vessels visible in the distance. The photograph's creator remains unknown, but it is believed to have been taken by either Edwin H. Husher or William A. Livingstone, both prominent American photographers of the era. The photograph is a testament to the rich maritime heritage of the United States, with its focus on the country's coastal geography and nautical activities. The photograph, which measures 8 x 10 inches, is part of the vast collection of the Library of Congress, located in Washington D.C. It is a reminder of a bygone era, when sailing was a popular sport and a means of transportation, and the open sea was a source of adventure and discovery. The image's timeless beauty continues to captivate viewers and evoke a sense of nostalgia for a simpler time in American history.
