Alcedo, 1890 July 12: A Captivating Moment in American Yachting History This photograph, titled "Alcedo, 1890 July 12," was taken by renowned photographer Johns Johnston during the height of the 19th century. The image depicts an exhilarating moment during a yachting regatta, an iconic pastime of the American leisure class. The tranquil water of an unidentified body of water reflects the sun-kissed sky as several sailboats glide gracefully through the scene. The leading boat, named "Alcedo," proudly displays the colors of its racing company, Detroit Publishing Co., as its crew members, dressed in crisp white sailing attire, focus intently on navigating the vessel. The serene scene is contrasted by the competitive spirit of the race, as evidenced by the determined expressions of the crew members and the taut sails billowing in the wind. In the background, another sailboat, "William A. Livingstone," trails closely behind Alcedo, indicating a close race. The photograph was captured using a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, a popular photographic technique of the era. This image, now a part of the prestigious Library of Congress collection, serves as a testament to the rich heritage of American yachting and the allure of water transportation during the late 1800s.
