EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph, taken by Bedford Lemere in October 1921 at Southampton, captures an interior view of the grand stairway leading to the first-class entrance on the Boat Deck of the RMS Olympic. The RMS Olympic, a White Star Line vessel and the first of her class of luxurious express transatlantic ocean liners, graced the seas with her majestic presence starting in 1911. With a size and opulence unmatched at the time, she held the title of the largest cruise liner in the world. The Olympic was the proud sister ship of the ill-fated RMS Titanic, and while the latter's tragic sinking in 1912 cast a long shadow over the White Star Line, the Olympic proved to be the only successful ship of the class, serving until 1935. The clock featured in this image, which once adorned the grand staircase of the RMS Olympic, is now a cherished exhibit at the Southampton Maritime Museum. Its intricate design and elegant craftsmanship are a testament to the unparalleled level of luxury and sophistication that defined ocean travel during this era. As you gaze upon this photograph, imagine the grandeur and opulence of a bygone era, when travel across the Atlantic was an experience reserved for the privileged few. The RMS Olympic, with her stunning stairways, elegant interiors, and unrivaled size, represented the pinnacle of maritime innovation and luxury.
