Continuing drawing ships. Lusitania and Mauretania

You can say "Aquitania is also in Lusitania-class!", but I didn't find any information about "Lusitania-class" existence, and Aquitania just does not fit in this ship-mold

rms berengaria, formerly hapag's ss imperator, at cherbourg. cunard's passenger tender lotharingia is in the foreground. art card from charles turner's ship portrait series, ca. 1923 @postcardtimemachine

#postcard #postcards #ocean liners #rms berengaria #cunard line #art card #charles turner #1920s #🤍 #mr. turner simply never misses! #you can really feel how massive the ship was #he also makes the absolute most of the card's horizontal orientation. it allows for the ship's size and presence to fill the entire image

So I came across a Facebook page all about the Cunard Liners and similar Ocean Liners. But when I saw these photos I instantly thought "bullshit!" No way are 1911ish photographs, even if retouched and colorized, looking that damn good! So I went hunting for the photos myself. At once I discovered that, although they are all black & white pictures, the resolution and quality of lines is freaking unbelievably outstanding! So, yes, those are pictures of the Cunard Liners. That's really the bow of RMS Titanic looking like something out of the Leonardo DiCaprio Hollywood film! And I ask, why in the early 1920ish could they produce pictures this good, but in the 1940s, two decades later, photos of the various warships involved in the second world war are total crap! Poor resolution. If color at all, it's flawed in one or more of the many ways film can be effected by, pretty much everything! It's a conspiracy!! Lol jk😅

So I only learned recently that the RMS Carpathia was sunk by a German torpedo during WW1. Even more eerie is that she sank the exact same day that the Romanovs were murdered, July 17th, 1918. They’ve found her wreck off of the cost of Ireland, but no one has done a deep dive to investigate her since she was found in 2000. She’s only 500 feet under, so she’s easy to access…someone needs to start that mission!

#the Carpathia is one of those ships that should have been preserved and turned into a museum #by her sheer willpower to save the Titanic her engines were weakened #when time came for her to escape the Germans she was too crippled to go any faster #if nobody explores the wreck then she could be forgotten #I hope people take the time to look at her and give her the reverence she deserves #rms carpathia #cunard #Cunard line #oh also Cunard still exists and owns the Queen Mary 2 so the age of ocean liners isn’t really over in that regard #world war 1
