EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the miniature ship "Red, White, and Blue" embarking on her historic voyage from New York to London in August 1866. The ship, with its bold red, white, and blue colors, sailed from New York Harbor on July 9th, under the command of Captains Hudson and Fitch, accompanied by their faithful companion, a dog named Fanny. The journey across the Atlantic Ocean was an adventure in itself, taking place during an era when transatlantic travel by sea was a significant feat. The ship's arrival at Margate, England, on August 16th, marked the successful completion of the voyage. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when travel by sea was the primary means of transportation between continents. The image of the miniature ship, with its vibrant colors and the determined look on the faces of Captains Hudson and Fitch, conveys a sense of excitement and anticipation as they set sail on their journey. The presence of Fanny, the dog, adds a touch of warmth and companionship to the scene. The "Red, White, and Blue" was not a commercial vessel but rather a private yacht, making this photograph a unique and fascinating record of a personal voyage across the Atlantic Ocean during the late 19th century. This image is a testament to the spirit of adventure and the enduring allure of the sea.
