EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph, captured by William H. Jackson in 1899, showcases the impressive profile of the U.S.S. Massachusetts as it sits proudly in a coastal location. The U.S.S. Massachusetts was a pre-dreadnought battleship, part of the United States Navy's growing fleet during the late 19th century. With its distinctive funnel stack and multiple turrets, the battleship exudes a sense of power and defense. The image, taken as a dry plate negative on glass 8 x 10 inches, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when naval warfare was a significant aspect of geopolitical strategy. The U.S.S. Massachusetts, a symbol of American maritime might, was named after the famous American state and was commissioned by the U.S. Congress in 1895. This photograph, now held in the Library of Congress, is a testament to the rich naval heritage of the United States. The U.S.S. Massachusetts, with its imposing presence, stands as a reminder of the country's commitment to its maritime interests and its role as a global naval power. The image, taken from a landscape perspective, also highlights the beautiful interplay of water and geographical features, making it a stunning piece of historical art.
