EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Entrance to A Deck, RMS Olympic" (BL24990_007), invites us to step aboard the grand RMS Olympic, sister ship to the illustrious Titanic and Britannic. The image, taken by the renowned Bedford Lemere and Company, transports us back in time to the early 1920s, an era of elegance and opulence on the high seas. The photograph was likely captured at the Southampton docks as the White Star Line's pride and joy prepared for yet another transatlantic voyage. The 1st class entrance to A deck is the focus of this image, with its ornate design and intricate details. The fractured glass plate negative technique adds a unique texture to the photograph, further emphasizing the historical significance of this moment in maritime history. The White Star Line, also known as the Oceanic Steam Navigation Company, commissioned this photograph to showcase the grandeur and sophistication of their flagship. The RMS Olympic, launched in 1911, was the largest and most luxurious ocean liner of its time, offering unparalleled comfort and amenities to its wealthy passengers. Despite the tragic sinking of its sister ship, the Titanic, just two years prior, the White Star Line continued to uphold its reputation for excellence and innovation. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of a bygone era, when travel by sea was an experience in and of itself, and the RMS Olympic represented the pinnacle of maritime achievement. The Historic England Archive preserves this precious piece of history, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and grandeur of the RMS Olympic and the golden age of ocean liners.
