EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a collection of oak architrave sections from the stateroom C-62 of the legendary White Star Line's RMS Olympic. These exquisite sections were once part of the Marquis of Granby, a vessel that later became a part of the White Star Line fleet. The intricately carved acanthus decoration adorning the architraves is a testament to the opulence and luxury that defined ocean travel during the early 20th century. The RMS Olympic, launched in 1911, was the first of the three Olympic-class ocean liners built for the White Star Line, and was renowned for its grandeur and sophistication. The Marquis of Granby, which preceded the Olympic, was also a magnificent vessel in its own right, and these oak architrave sections bear witness to the lavish interior design of that era. The carving on these wooden sections is a prime example of the intricate craftsmanship that went into creating the interiors of these luxury cruise liners. Acanthus, a classic motif in Greek and Roman architecture, is depicted in exquisite detail, adding an air of elegance and refinement to the staterooms. These architrave sections, now preserved as relics of maritime history, offer a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when travel by sea was an experience of unparalleled luxury and sophistication. The intricate carvings, the rich wood, and the history they hold make them a treasure trove for collectors and history enthusiasts alike.
