EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia photograph captures the White Star Line's RMS Titanic in Belfast, Northern Ireland, towards the end of 1911. The reverse of the print bears the inscriptions "1912," "Titanic," and "Belfast," suggesting that this image was taken just before the historic ocean liner embarked on its maiden voyage. The photograph is part of the Harlingue Studio Collection, which was established by Albert Harlingue in 1905 at 5, rue Sevestre, 75018 Paris. Albert Harlingue was a renowned French photographer who captured the essence of the Belle Époque era through his stunning images of ships and maritime scenes. This photograph, measuring 4 inches by 6 inches, showcases the White Star Line's luxury cruise liner in all its grandeur as it was being completed at the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast. The RMS Titanic, a symbol of modern engineering and opulence, was the largest and most luxurious ocean liner of its time. Its tragic sinking on April 15, 1912, after colliding with an iceberg, remains one of the most significant events in maritime history. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing a tangible connection to an era of elegance and innovation in shipbuilding and travel. Harlingue's photographic agency thrived in Paris, and his work continues to be celebrated for its historical significance and artistic merit. This image of the Titanic in Belfast is a testament to Harlingue's skill as a photographer and his ability to capture the essence of a moment in time that would forever change the course of history.
