Departure of FINLAND with Olympic Candidates
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking black-and-white photograph taken in 1912 by George Grantham Bain's esteemed news service, we witness a momentous occasion - the departure of Finland, an iconic Red Star Line ocean liner, as it sets sail from New York Harbor bound for Stockholm, Sweden. On board are some of America's finest athletes, representing their country at the Summer Olympic Games.
The photograph captures the excitement and anticipation on display as these talented individuals prepare to embark on a journey that will test their skills against the world's best competitors. The American flag proudly flies above them, symbolizing patriotism and national pride.
Notable for its sense of movement and energy, this image conveys the thrill of departure as Finland casts off into the open sea. Bain News Service's keen eye captures every detail - from the athletes' stylish attire to the liner's imposing presence on the water. This photograph is a poignant reminder of an era when international competitions brought nations together in celebration of human achievement and sporting excellence.
