EDITORS COMMENTS
RMS Lusitania: New Evidence on the Unprovoked Sinking that Dragged Us toward War - Cover Design, Life Magazine, 13 October 1972 The cover design of the 13 October 1972 issue of Life magazine features a powerful and evocative image that captures the historical significance of the sinking of the RMS Lusitania. This steamer, a symbol of the Belle Époque era of ocean travel, was tragically sunk off the coast of Ireland on May 7, 1915, during World War I. The cover design, created in the 1970s, is a contemporary representation of this momentous event that played a crucial role in drawing the United States into the war. The design, which is reminiscent of a target or a hairline crosswire, is striking in its simplicity and impact. The title, "RMS Lusitania: New Evidence on the Unprovoked Sinking that Dragged Us toward War," is displayed prominently in bold, capitalized letters, with the subheading, "7 May 1915," positioned below. The image of the Lusitania itself is depicted in a stylized, almost abstracted form, with its hull split in two and the water around it churning with energy. The overall effect is one of tension, danger, and historical importance. This cover design, which is part of the extensive collection of historical images available from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a fascinating glimpse into the visual language of journalism during the 1970s. It is a poignant reminder of the role that media played in shaping public opinion and awareness during times of conflict, and the enduring power of visual storytelling to capture the imagination and evoke emotion.
