EDITORS COMMENTS
This lantern slide depicts a two-masted, two-funnel Russian warship from the Russo-Japanese War, specifically identified as the cruiser "Takasgo." The image, taken between 1904 and 1905, captures the ship's distinctive white rings surrounding each funnel, a feature that helped distinguish Russian vessels during this significant conflict. The Russo-Japanese War, which lasted from 1904 to 1905, was a pivotal moment in world history, marking the first major military clash between Eastern and Western powers. This naval battle took place in the Far East, primarily in the waters of the Yellow Sea and the Sea of Japan, as Russia attempted to expand its influence in the region. The "Takasgo," a formidable warship of the Imperial Russian Navy, played a crucial role in the early stages of the war. The intricate details of the ship's design, including its rigging, gun emplacements, and smokestacks, are beautifully captured in this photograph, offering a glimpse into the technological prowess and naval power of the time. The lantern slide, part of the Boswell Collection, provides a unique and captivating perspective on this historic conflict and the naval warfare of the early 20th century.
