EDITORS COMMENTS
Arrival of First Missionary Boat 'Thaddeus' Celebrated in Honolulu's Floral Parade (1910)
This striking photograph captures a pivotal moment in Hawaiian history - the arrival of the first missionary boat, "Thaddeus", which marked the beginning of Christian missions on the islands. The float, adorned with lush flowers and tropical foliage, proudly represents this milestone event at Honolulu's 1910 Floral Parade.
The Bain News Service photographer has expertly captured the vibrant colors and lively atmosphere of the parade, as well as the sense of celebration and community that surrounded it. In the foreground, a beautifully dressed woman sits atop a horse-drawn vehicle, waving to onlookers while holding aloft a floral garland. Behind her, a majestic stallion prances proudly, its flowing mane adding an extra touch of elegance to the scene.
This photograph not only commemorates the arrival of Christian missionaries but also highlights Honolulu's rich cultural heritage and love for celebration. It is a testament to the city's ability to come together in joyous procession, honoring important events while showcasing its unique blend of traditional Hawaiian culture and modern influences.
