EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph, taken on August 8, 1897, captures a significant moment on board the U.S.S. Texas during its visit to Havana, Cuba. In the image, Ensign Walter R. Gherardi is presented with a cross and badge by the King's daughters, likely Princesses Beatrice and Victoria of the United Kingdom. The U.S.S. Texas had recently participated in the United States' intervention in the Cuban rebellion against Spanish rule, and this gesture of appreciation for Ensign Gherardi's bravery during naval warfare was a notable display of international camaraderie. The photograph was likely taken on the deck of the battleship using a dry plate or glass negative process, common during the late 19th century. The image provides a glimpse into the past, showcasing the men of the United States Navy, dressed in their uniforms, gathered on the ship's deck. The U.S.S. Texas, a powerful symbol of American naval might, looms in the background. The photograph is a valuable piece of history, providing insight into the international political climate of the late 19th century and the role of the United States Navy in global affairs. It is a testament to the bravery and dedication of the sailors who served on these ships and the diplomatic relationships that were fostered during this time. The photograph is part of the collections of the Library of Congress, a vital repository of America's cultural and historical heritage.
