EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Imperator, an ocean liner that was built for the German Hamburg America Line in 1913. However, its story takes a fascinating turn as it was later used by the Allies to transport American troops back to the United States after the end of World War I. The image showcases this impressive vessel against a backdrop of history. It stands as a symbol of both conflict and unity, representing the shifting tides of war and diplomacy during the early 20th century. The Imperator played a crucial role in bringing soldiers home from Europe, bridging continents and providing solace after years of turmoil. The photograph is credited to a German photographer from the 20th century whose work now resides in a private collection. Its inclusion in Our Times Illustrated magazine on April 5th, 1919 further emphasizes its significance as an illustration of historical events. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded not only of Germany's maritime prowess but also how nations can come together even amidst times of strife. The Imperator serves as a testament to human resilience and cooperation during one of history's most devastating conflicts - World War I.
