EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the grandeur and elegance of the RMS Olympic's Promenade Deck, as it was once admired by passengers aboard this iconic White Star Line vessel. The Olympic, built between 1910 and 1911, was the largest ship in the world at the time of her launch and was a testament to the engineering and design prowess of the early 20th century. The Promenade Deck, with its ornate ironwork and teak decking, was a popular gathering place for passengers, offering breathtaking views of the ocean and the opportunity to take leisurely strolls amidst the fresh sea air. The deck's elegant railings, adorned with intricate scrollwork, add to the sense of refinement and luxury that defined the White Star Line's ocean liners. The Olympic was the sister ship to the ill-fated Titanic and Britannic, and this photograph was likely taken at the Southampton docks during the Olympic's maiden voyage in 1920 or 1921. The White Star Line commissioned Bedford Lemere and Company to capture the beauty and majesty of their flagship, and this photograph is a testament to the skill and artistry of the Bedford Lemere photographers. The RMS Olympic went on to have a long and distinguished career, serving as a troopship during World War II and eventually being scrapped in 1947. Today, this photograph is a valuable reminder of the golden age of ocean travel and the enduring allure of the sea.
