EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in maritime history. In the image, the majestic RMS Titanic is seen being moved out of drydock to make way for her sister ship, RMS Olympic. It was taken on March 6,1912, by an English photographer whose work now resides in a private collection. The grandeur of these iconic passenger liners is evident as they stand side by side. The Titanic, celebrated as one of the most luxurious ships ever built for the White Star Line, had just been completed that same month. Little did anyone know that tragedy would strike just over a month later when she sank after colliding with an iceberg on April 15th. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness not only the beauty and scale of these transatlantic vessels but also glimpse into the meticulous maintenance required to keep them sailing smoothly across vast oceans. The purpose behind moving the Titanic out of drydock was to allow her sister ship's propeller replacement - a routine procedure necessary to ensure safe and efficient travel. As we observe this sepia-toned scene from more than a century ago, it serves as a poignant reminder of both human ingenuity and vulnerability at sea. This photograph encapsulates an era defined by technological advancements and dreams of exploration while foreshadowing the tragic fate that awaited one of history's most famous ships.
