The Ocean Grave of the Titanic, and photograph of Captain Edward Smith, April 20, 1912
The Ocean Grave of the Titanic, and photograph of Captain Edward Smith, April 20, 1912. Article entitled The Ocean Grave of the Titanic, and photograph of Smith: The Commander of the Titanic and the Bows of his Ship. Captain Edward Smith (1850-1912) went down with his ship, and consequently became an icon of British stiff upper lip spirit, due to his stoicism and fortitude in the face of adversity. The White Star Line ship RMS Titanic struck an iceberg in thick fog off Newfoundland on 14 April 1912. She was the largest and most luxurious ocean liner of her time, and thought to be unsinkable. In the collision, five of her watertight compartments were compromised and she sank. Out of the 2228 people on board, only 705 survived. A major cause of the loss of life was the insufficient number of lifeboats she carried.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the haunting beauty of the ocean grave of the Titanic, a tragic reminder of one of history's greatest maritime disasters. The image showcases the solemn wreckage resting on the seabed, serving as a poignant memorial to all those who lost their lives on that fateful night. Accompanying this somber scene is a photograph of Captain Edward Smith, taken just four days before he met his untimely fate. As commander of the ill-fated ship, Captain Smith has become an enduring symbol of British resilience and stoicism in times of adversity. His unwavering determination and fortitude in facing imminent disaster have made him an icon. The RMS Titanic was once hailed as an engineering marvel, boasting unparalleled luxury and grandeur. However, tragedy struck when she collided with an iceberg amidst thick fog off Newfoundland on April 14th, 1912. The collision compromised several watertight compartments, leading to her inevitable sinking. The loss was staggering; out of over 2200 people onboard, only 705 survived. One major factor contributing to this devastating toll was the insufficient number of lifeboats carried by the ship. This historic photograph comes from "Titanic In Memoriam Number" a special supplement published in "The Daily Graphic" newspaper on April 20th, 1912 - just five days after the catastrophe occurred. It serves as both a visual testament to human vulnerability and a reminder never to underestimate nature's power or our responsibility for safety at sea.
