Communications Room on an Atlantic liner
A communications room onboard an Atlantic liner, an example of the kind that would have been on board the Titanic. Built by the shipyard Harland and Wolff for White Star Lines, the Titanic was a rival to Cunards Lusitania and Mauretania.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the interior of a communications room on an Atlantic liner, reminiscent of the kind that would have been found aboard the ill-fated Titanic. The room is filled with intricate machinery and equipment, showcasing the advanced technology used for wireless communication during this era.
Built by Harland and Wolff for White Star Lines, the Titanic was a luxurious rival to Cunard's Lusitania and Mauretania. This communications room would have played a crucial role in keeping passengers connected with loved ones back home, as well as receiving important messages from other ships at sea.
Tragically, on its maiden voyage across the Atlantic in 1912, the Titanic struck an iceberg and sank, resulting in the loss of 1503 lives. This devastating event forever changed maritime history and serves as a poignant reminder of both human ingenuity and vulnerability.
The image evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era when ocean liners were marvels of engineering and luxury travel. It also serves as a somber tribute to those who perished on that fateful night in April 1912.
