This print captures a moment in history from July 1918, showcasing the construction of a concrete ship. The image showcases scaffolding and wooden casing in position as workers diligently build the vessel. The intricate details of the shipbuilding process are highlighted, with timber beams crisscrossing against the backdrop of calm waters.
The scene exudes a sense of industry and innovation, as Europe was embroiled in World War I during this time period. The war effort necessitated creative solutions for transportation, leading to the development of concrete ships like the one being built in this photograph.
