  6. A new #painting:

    “The Wave”

    The captain informs us that due to slightly choppy seas the giant paddling men have been deployed, but there is no cause for alarm.

  13. On the blog. Historic photo: dining saloon aboard the SS Great Eastern, 1859. This ship, by far the largest of her day, was a quantum leap forward in the history of ocean liners. In this fascinating photo you can see the main passengers' table set for dinner in lavish Victorian fashion. My article contains some interesting tidbits on the history of this ship.

  17. Today on the blog. 108 years ago today, May 7, 1915, a German submarine torpedoed the British liner Lusitania, killing 1200 people. This monstrous act of war was actually the culmination of a deadly psychological poker game between Britain and Germany where the stakes were innocent lives. Here's how Germany's chutzpah collided with Britain's naïvete and led to disaster. #histodons #oceanliners #worldwar1 #todayinhistory gardenofmemory.net/sailing-tow

  21. Today on the blog. 54 years ago today, the Queen Elizabeth 2 went on her maiden voyage. She was created as the last word in modern ocean liner design, closing the door on the traditional Art Deco past. Just one problem: her décor was from 1969 and didn't age well! Within three years she was refitted, but in those early years she was the floating embodiment of the garish '60s. #histodons #ships #oceanliners #design #QE2
