EDITORS COMMENTS
This 8 x 10 inch photograph captures the U.S.S. Newark, commanded by Captain Norman Von Farquhar, between the years 1891 and 1899. The U.S.S. Newark was a protected cruiser, a type of naval vessel designed for both cruising and warfare. In this image, Captain Farquhar is shown standing at the helm of the ship, dressed in his full naval uniform. The dry plate negative, created by an unknown photographer, provides a glimpse into the fashion of the late 19th century, with Captain Farquhar wearing a high-collared coat, trousers, and a wide-brimmed hat. The U.S.S. Newark was a significant part of the United States Navy during this period, and Captain Farquhar served an esteemed career, eventually rising to the rank of Rear Admiral. This photograph, now held in the Library of Congress, offers a rare and valuable look into the life of a naval officer during the late 19th century. The image also provides insight into the daily operations of a naval ship, with the ship's wheel and compass clearly visible in the background. The U.S.S. Newark, under the command of Captain Farquhar, played an essential role in the transportation and protection of American interests during this period of naval warfare and exploration. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of the United States Navy and the men who served in it.
