Cunard's RMS Aquitania at Speed: A Vintage Splendor of the Edwardian Era This lantern slide image transports us back to the early 1910s, showcasing the majestic RMS Aquitania in full sail, cutting through the water with an effortless grace. The third ocean liner built for the prestigious Cunard Line, Aquitania was a testament to the ingenuity and grandeur of the Victorian and Edwardian eras. Launched in 1914, the Aquitania was the largest ship in the world at the time, measuring an impressive 882 feet in length and boasting a top speed of 22 knots. This photograph, taken during her maiden voyage, captures the RMS Aquitania in all her glory as she sails the open sea. The intricate details of the ship's ornate design are on full display, from the elegant curves of her hull to the intricately carved smokestacks adorned with the Cunard Line's distinctive funnel bands. The vast expanse of the ocean stretches out behind her, dotted with other vessels and the occasional cloud, adding to the sense of scale and wonder. The RMS Aquitania represented the pinnacle of maritime engineering and luxury during the Edwardian era. This image, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, serves as a reminder of a bygone age when travel by sea was an adventure in and of itself, and the RMS Aquitania was the epitome of elegance and sophistication on the high seas.
