EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the SS Colon, a steamship making its way through the Chagres River crossing in the early 20th century. The image, taken between 1904 and 1920, provides a glimpse into the rich maritime history of the Panama Canal. The SS Colon, a prominent vessel in the fleet of the Detroit Publishing Company, is seen passing under the railroad bridge, which spans the Chagres River. The bridge, a testament to the engineering feats of the time, was an essential component of the Panama Railroad, which connected the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The Chagres River, a significant geographical feature in Panama, Central America, is seen in its full glory, with the lush greenery of the surrounding landscape reflecting in its calm waters. The steamship, with its tall smokestacks billowing out plumes of smoke, adds a dynamic element to the otherwise serene scene. The photograph, taken as a dry plate or glass negative, showcases the intricate details of the steamship and the bridge, highlighting the skill and expertise of the photographer, believed to be either Edwin H. Husher or William A. Livingstone, both of whom were prominent photographers of the time. This photograph, now part of the collection at the Library of Congress, is a testament to the rich heritage of American transportation history, particularly the era of steamships and the Panama Canal. The image is a reminder of the ingenuity and determination that went into building the canal, connecting the United States to the world and revolutionizing global trade.
