EDITORS COMMENTS
**A Historic Encounter: Gen. Virbeck and Admiral Togo on Board the Lusitania**
In this striking black-and-white photograph taken in 1911, a distinguished group of military leaders and diplomats gather to welcome Japanese Admiral Heihachiro Togo aboard the RMS Lusitania as it docks in New York City. At center are Major General Frederick D. Grant, Adjutant General William Verbeck of the New York National Guard, and Chandler Hale, Assistant Secretary of State.
The esteemed guests wear formal attire, with Gen. Grant sporting a bowler hat and Admiral Togo dressed in his naval uniform. The direct gazes between these prominent figures convey a sense of respect and camaraderie as they mark this significant moment in international relations during the early 20th century.
This historic photograph was captured by Bain News Service, a pioneering news agency that played a crucial role in documenting major events throughout the era. Today, it serves as a poignant reminder of the diplomatic ties between nations and the influential individuals who shaped global affairs.
