EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "U.S.S. New York, morning exercise, between 1893 and 1901," by William H. Jackson, offers a glimpse into the daily routine of life aboard an American armored cruiser during the late 19th century. The image, published by Detroit Publishing Company, captures a group of sailors on the deck of the U.S.S. New York as they engage in their morning exercises. The ship's American flag proudly flies high at the foremast, while goats, serving as mascots and for meat, graze on the deck, adding an unexpected element to the scene. The sailors are seen bending down in various positions, some with cramps, as they stretch and prepare their bodies for the day's tasks. The image, taken as a dry plate negative using an 8 x 10 inch glass, showcases the crisp details of the men's uniforms and the intricate design of the ship's deck. The photograph, now held in the Library of Congress, is a testament to the rigorous physical demands of naval life and the importance of maintaining fitness and readiness for duty. The U.S.S. New York, a formidable battleship of its time, was launched in 1893 and served in the United States Navy until 1920. This photograph, taken between 1893 and 1901, provides a unique window into the daily life of the crew and the routines that kept them in top condition for naval warfare. The image, with its rich history and intriguing details, continues to captivate viewers and offer insights into the past.
