EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time - the tragic wreck of the American steamship Arizona off the coast of Newfoundland in November 1879. The image shows the massive vessel sailing at full speed into an iceberg, a chilling reminder of the dangers faced by early transatlantic travelers.
The Guion Line's Arizona was known for its speed and efficiency as a mode of transport between America and Europe, but on that fateful day, it met its untimely demise in a collision with nature's icy obstacle. The historical significance of this event is palpable in the stark contrast between the sleek ship and the looming iceberg.
As we gaze upon this piece from Mary Evans Picture Library, we are transported back to a time when maritime travel was fraught with peril and uncertainty. The sheer power and force depicted in this scene serve as a poignant reminder of both human ingenuity and vulnerability.
Let us pause to reflect on the lives lost during this tragic event, as well as those who survived to tell their harrowing tale. May this print serve as a testament to the resilience of those who braved the high seas in pursuit of new horizons.
