EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, the French luxury liner Normandie gracefully rests at the quay of St. Nazaire harbor in February 1935. Launched on July 26, 1932, the construction of this magnificent vessel took an impressive three years to complete. By the time of this image, the Normandie had undergone extensive fitting out to prepare for her maiden transatlantic voyage to New York. The anticipation surrounding the Normandie's debut was palpable, as she represented the pinnacle of maritime engineering and luxury during the interwar period. When she finally set sail on May 27, 1935, the Normandie made history by capturing the Blue Riband – the coveted title for the fastest transatlantic crossing – with an impressive time of 4 days, 3 hours. The Normandie's sleek design, innovative features, and unparalleled comfort quickly made her a symbol of elegance and sophistication. Her maiden voyage to New York marked the beginning of a new era in transatlantic travel, as the Normandie set a new standard for speed and luxury that would influence the design of future ocean liners. This photograph captures the Normandie in all her glory, with her elegant lines, gleaming hull, and imposing size on full display. The image serves as a reminder of the golden age of ocean travel and the fascination that the sea and its magnificent vessels held for travelers during this period. The Normandie's legacy extends beyond her record-breaking crossing, as she continued to serve as a symbol of French pride and innovation until her tragic demise during World War II. This photograph stands as a testament to the enduring allure of the ocean liner and the indelible mark it left on the history of maritime travel.
