SHIP COLLISION, 1888 - A Historical Moment Captured in Time
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases the dramatic collision between two mighty ocean liners, RMS Umbria of the Cunard Line and SS Iberia of the Fabre Line. The incident occurred on a fateful day, November 10th, 1888 near Sandy Hook in New York Bay. As fate would have it, the SS Iberia tragically succumbed to its watery grave. Frozen forever in this image is a testament to both human triumphs and failures within the maritime industry. The grandeur of these colossal vessels is evident as they stand side by side against a backdrop of Northeastern waters. This collision serves as a stark reminder that even amidst progress and technological advancements, accidents can still occur. Passengers aboard these magnificent ships were undoubtedly shaken by this unexpected turn of events. Trade and transportation were momentarily halted as rescue efforts took precedence over commercial activities. Granger Art on Demand has expertly captured this historical moment from their extensive collection - an invaluable glimpse into our past. Let us reflect upon this photograph with reverence for those who perished at sea while appreciating how far we have come since that late autumn day in 1888.
