EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures a significant moment in history, depicting the sailing notice and German warning published in the New York Herald on May 1st, 1915. The artwork, created by an anonymous American School artist of the 20th century, showcases the urgency and danger surrounding transatlantic travel during World War I. The focal point of this print is undoubtedly the tragic event that unfolded shortly after this notice was printed. The RMS Lusitania, a Cunard liner known for its luxurious voyages across the Atlantic Ocean, fell victim to a German U-boat attack resulting in the devastating loss of 1198 lives. This incident had far-reaching consequences as it played a pivotal role in influencing the United States' eventual decision to enter the war. The image serves as a reminder of how newspapers were crucial sources of information during wartime. It highlights both their power to warn travelers about potential dangers and their ability to shape public opinion and political decisions. Through intricate engraving techniques, this lithograph beautifully captures not only historical events but also conveys emotions associated with fear and uncertainty. It stands as a testament to human resilience amidst adversity while serving as an important artifact from one of humanity's darkest chapters - World War I.
