EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the fascinating world of Maurice Dekobra's Submarine, as depicted in this photograph from the early 1930s. This image offers a rare glimpse into the interior of this pioneering underwater vessel, showcasing its unique features and innovative design. At the heart of the submarine lies the capstan, a vital component of the propulsion system. The capstan, with its intricate mechanical workings, is responsible for winding in the anchor chain and securing the submarine to the ocean floor during exploration. Its presence in this photograph underscores the submarine's exploration capabilities, a testament to Dekobra's groundbreaking achievements in underwater transportation. Beside the capstan, a drinks cabinet catches the eye, adding a touch of luxury and comfort to this extraordinary underwater environment. The presence of this cabinet speaks to the ingenuity of its designer, who understood the importance of providing essential amenities for the crew during extended underwater voyages. The steering wheel, visible in the background, further emphasizes the submarine's functionality and the skill required to navigate the depths of the ocean. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of underwater exploration and the visionary mind of Maurice Dekobra, who pushed the boundaries of what was possible in the early 1930s. This image, with its intriguing details and historical significance, is an essential addition to any collection focusing on maritime history, submarines, or the spirit of innovation and exploration.
