Berengaria Cruise Cunard Funnels Steamship
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, the majestic RMS Berengaria of the Cunard White Star Line dominates the horizon as she cuts through the tranquil waters of the Atlantic Ocean in the 1920s. The steamship, named after the Queen of Aragon, Berengaria of Navarre, is a testament to the grandeur and sophistication of the golden age of ocean liner travel. The RMS Berengaria, launched in 1935, was the first of Cunard's "Queen" class of ocean liners, preceding the more famous RMS Queen Mary and RMS Queen Elizabeth. Measuring over 800 feet in length and with a tonnage of 31,000 tons, she was a behemoth of the sea, dwarfing the smaller vessels in her wake. Her distinctive funnels, adorned with the Cunard White Star Line logo, billow with smoke as the ship gains speed, adding to her imposing presence. The RMS Berengaria was a symbol of luxury and comfort, designed to transport passengers in style and elegance across the Atlantic. With amenities including swimming pools, ballrooms, libraries, and opulent staterooms, the ship was a floating palace, attracting the wealthy and famous from around the world. This photograph captures the essence of the RMS Berengaria in her prime, as she sails serenely through the ocean, leaving a trail of white foam in her wake. The water shimmers in the sunlight, reflecting the ship's elegant silhouette, while the sky above is clear and blue. It is a moment frozen in time, a reminder of the romance and adventure of ocean travel in the 1920s. The RMS Berengaria continued to serve Cunard until 1946, when she was sold for scrap. But her legacy lives on, as a symbol of the golden age of ocean liner travel and a reminder of the magic and wonder of the sea.
