EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of patriotism and unity during a time of war. Soprano opera singer Mabel Garrison Siemonn stands alongside Captain Pierce on board the U.S.S. Recruit, a wooden mockup battleship in Union Square, New York City. The year is 1917, and America is deeply entrenched in World War I.
Mabel Garrison exudes grace and elegance as she poses for the camera, her voice likely bringing comfort to many during such tumultuous times. Captain Pierce stands tall beside her, representing the strength and bravery of those who serve their country.
The U.S.S. Recruit served as both a recruitment center for seamen and a platform to sell Liberty Bonds to support the war effort. This unique setting adds an air of authenticity to the photograph, showcasing the dedication of Americans from all walks of life coming together for a common cause.
As we gaze upon this black-and-white image captured by Bain News Service, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen in history.
