EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the yacht Ara in dry dock in October 1922, sparking concern over the whereabouts of millionaire William K. Vanderbilt and his crew. The image exudes a sense of mystery and suspense as the luxurious vessel, owned by Vanderbilt, is four days overdue in New York harbor.
The sleek lines of the yacht contrast with the industrial surroundings of the dry dock, creating a striking visual juxtaposition. The steamship sits silently on land, out of its element but still commanding attention with its grandeur.
As fears mount about Mr. Vanderbilt's disappearance, viewers are drawn into a narrative filled with intrigue and uncertainty. What could have happened to this wealthy businessman and his crew? The photograph leaves us pondering these questions as we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time.
With its historical significance and timeless appeal, this print serves as a reminder of the fragility of human existence and the unpredictable nature of life at sea. It is a testament to both the beauty and danger that come with sailing on vast waters aboard magnificent vessels like the Ara.
