EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the elegant luncheon menu from the RMS Carpathia, a renowned ocean liner of the Cunard Line, dated Sunday, 17 November 1912. The RMS Carpathia, adorned with the distinctive Cunard flag and logo, was known for its luxurious cruises and transportation services across the Atlantic Ocean. The menu, featuring a vibrant red design, showcases an array of delectable dishes prepared by the ship's skilled catering team. Appetizers included Consommé Olga, Oysters on the Half Shell, and Melon Vinaigrette. The main course offered a choice between Roast Beef, Chicken a la Maryland, or Broiled Fish. The meal concluded with a selection of sweet desserts such as Peaches in Chartreuse Jelly, Strawberries Romanoff, and Pineapple Ice. This menu holds historical significance as the RMS Carpathia was the ship that responded to the distress call of the RMS Titanic after its tragic sinking on 14 April 1912. The Carpathia rescued over 700 survivors, making it a symbol of hope and compassion during a time of great loss. The 1910s were a golden era for ocean liners, with the Cunard Line leading the way in luxury and innovation. This print serves as a beautiful reminder of the elegance and sophistication of that era, as well as the important role these ships played in transportation and rescue operations.
