EDITORS COMMENTS
"RMS Berengaria, a majestic Cunard White Star liner, gracefully cuts through the tranquil waters in this vintage photograph. The RMS Berengaria, named after the Queen of Navarre, was launched in 1935 and was the last ocean liner to be built specifically for the Blue Riband Atlantic crossing race. Measuring 790 feet in length and capable of carrying over 1,500 passengers, she was a testament to the opulence and grandeur of ocean travel in the pre-war era. The RMS Berengaria was renowned for her elegant Art Deco design, with sweeping curves, ornate detailing, and a distinctive funnel adorned with the Cunard White Star line's iconic logo. The ship's interiors were equally impressive, featuring luxurious cabins, grand ballrooms, and spacious public rooms. In this image, the RMS Berengaria appears serene and poised as she sails the open sea, with the sun casting a warm glow over her decks. The ship's smokestacks emit a plume of white steam, adding to the sense of motion and power. The surrounding water is calm and still, reflecting the ship's elegant silhouette. The RMS Berengaria continued to serve Cunard until 1950, when she was sold for scrap. Today, she remains a cherished symbol of the golden age of ocean travel, and this photograph is a beautiful reminder of the romance and adventure that once defined transatlantic voyages."
