EDITORS COMMENTS
In this early 20th century photograph, we find Frederik Alfred Lohmann (1870-1919), a prominent German merchant based in Bremen. Lohmann's business acumen and innovative spirit extended far beyond the confines of traditional import-export ventures. During the tumultuous period of the First World War, Lohmann became an integral figure in the development of a groundbreaking technology: the merchant submarine, or U-boat. As the British imposed stringent blockades on shipping lanes in an attempt to strangle Germany's economy, Lohmann recognized the potential of U-boats as a means to bypass these restrictions. He played a pivotal role in the creation of these underwater vessels, most notably the renowned Deutschland-class submarines. These submarines, which were larger and more advanced than their predecessors, enabled Germany to continue transporting essential goods and resources, keeping its economy afloat amidst the adversity of war. Lohmann's involvement in the U-boat program underscores the dynamic and multifaceted nature of business during this era. His entrepreneurial spirit and adaptability in the face of extraordinary challenges not only contributed to the German war effort but also left a lasting impact on the world of transportation and technology. This photograph serves as a testament to Lohmann's vision and determination, capturing a pivotal moment in both his personal and professional journey.
