EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this collection of rare White Star Line carte de visite cabin plans for the iconic ocean liners, Oceanic and Britannic. These exquisite prints, dating from the late 19th century, offer a unique glimpse into the luxurious world of Victorian-era maritime travel. The Oceanic, launched in 1870 at the esteemed Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast, Northern Ireland, is represented by two cabin plans. This grand vessel, which left service in 1895, was once a marvel of engineering and design, boasting innovative features that set it apart from its contemporaries. The Britannic, another Blue Riband winner, graces us with a single cabin plan. Launched on 25 June 1874, her maiden voyage was a testament to the elegance and sophistication of the White Star Line. The Britannic, which was scrapped in 1903, remains a symbol of the golden age of sail and a reminder of the allure and romance of ocean travel during this period. These precious cabin plans not only provide valuable insights into the design and layout of these magnificent ships but also transport us back to a time when the sea was a gateway to adventure and discovery.
