Titanic - 2nd Class Dinner Menu, 1912
Titanic - 2nd Class Dinner Menu, 1912. A 2nd Class dinner menu from RMS Titanic dated April 14, 1912. This was the date that Titanic struck the iceburg that caused her to sink. She was the largest and most luxurious ocean liner of her time, and thought to be unsinkable. In the collision five of her watertight compartments were compromised and she sank. Out of the 2228 people on board, only 705 survived. A major cause of the loss of life was the insufficient number of lifeboats she carried

This print showcases a piece of history frozen in time - the Titanic's 2nd Class Dinner Menu from April 14,1912. Little did anyone know that this very evening would mark the tragic collision with an iceberg that sealed the fate of this magnificent vessel. The RMS Titanic, renowned for its grandeur and opulence, was considered unsinkable until disaster struck. As you gaze upon this close-up shot, you can almost feel the elegance and sophistication that permeated every corner of this luxurious ocean liner. The intricate lettering and typeface on the menu evoke a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era when travel was truly an art form. However, behind the beauty lies a haunting reminder of human tragedy. With only five watertight compartments compromised during the collision, it became painfully clear that there were not enough lifeboats to save all souls aboard. Out of over two thousand passengers and crew members, only 705 managed to survive. This print serves as a poignant tribute to those who perished on that fateful night and sheds light on one of history's most devastating maritime disasters. It is both a testament to mankind's ambition in creating such marvels and a stark reminder of our fallibility in ensuring safety at sea. Let us remember their stories as we reflect upon this relic from another time - an artifact forever etched with sorrowful memories yet also preserving tales of courage amidst unimaginable circumstances.
