EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts the U.S.S. Indiana leading a grand naval parade in honor of Admiral George Dewey during the Dewey Naval Parade in New York City in 1899. The U.S.S. Indiana, a battleship of the Pennsylvania Class, proudly sails up the Hudson River, surrounded by a flotilla of other naval ships. The parade marked the return of Admiral Dewey and his fleet from the victorious Battle of Manila Bay during the Spanish-American War. Admiral Dewey, a renowned American naval hero, stands on the deck of the U.S.S. Indiana, saluting the crowd gathered along the shoreline. The geographical feature of the Hudson River, a significant body of water in New York State, adds to the grandeur of the scene. The photograph, taken as a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, captures the essence of this historic moment in American naval history. The Library of Congress holds this photograph in its vast collection, preserving it as an important piece of our nation's maritime heritage. The image showcases the impressive size and power of the U.S. Navy during this era, as well as the pride and patriotism of the American people. The distant ships in the background add to the sense of scale and importance of the event. This photograph is a testament to the naval warfare and pageantry of the late 19th century, a time when America's naval power was rapidly expanding and asserting its presence on the global stage.
