EDITORS COMMENTS
This impressive warship drawing, published by Edward H. Wiswesser between 1914 and 1918, showcases the general arrangement of the RMS Olympic during World War I. Measuring 33 x 14 inches, this detailed blueprint offers a technical and intricate view into the design of this historic vessel. The RMS Olympic, a sister ship to the ill-fated Titanic, was the largest and most luxurious ocean liner in the world at the time of its launch in 1911. However, its service as a transport ship during the Great War transformed it into a vessel of a different kind. This drawing captures the RMS Olympic in its wartime configuration, with military installations and weapons systems added to its grand design. The intricately detailed illustration reveals the various compartments and decks, including the engine room, boiler rooms, gun decks, and living quarters for the crew and passengers. The presence of gun turrets, anti-aircraft guns, and other military installations can be seen, highlighting the ship's transformation from a commercial vessel to a formidable warship. The RMS Olympic served valiantly during the war, transporting troops and supplies across the Atlantic. It was also involved in several notable engagements, including the Battle of the Atlantic and the Battle of the Falklands. This warship drawing, published by Edward H. Wiswesser, offers a unique glimpse into the technical aspects of this remarkable vessel and its role in the history of World War I.
