EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the luxurious ambiance of the 1st class smoking room on board the RMS Olympic, a sister ship to the legendary Titanic and Britannic. The image, taken by Bedford Lemere and Company around 1920-1921, was commissioned by the White Star Line, also known as the Oceanic Steam Navigation Company. The room is adorned with richly upholstered armchairs and sofas, intricately patterned carpets, and ornate wood paneling. The atmosphere is one of refined elegance, with passengers engaged in quiet conversation, reading, or enjoying a post-dinner cigar. The RMS Olympic, launched in 1911, was the largest and most luxurious ship in the world at the time, and was renowned for its opulent accommodations and exceptional service. The smoking room was a popular gathering place for first-class passengers, providing a comfortable and sophisticated setting for relaxation and socialization. The photograph was likely taken at the Southampton docks prior to the Olympic's departure on a transatlantic voyage. The ship's elegant design and meticulously appointed interiors were a testament to the White Star Line's commitment to providing its passengers with the finest travel experience possible. The RMS Olympic remained in service until 1935, and her sister ships, the Titanic and Britannic, both met tragic ends, making this photograph an important record of a bygone era of ocean travel.
