Print - RMS Britannic, 1920
Print - RMS Britannic, 1920
Britannic was intended to round off the three Olympic-class ships and secure White Star Line’s dominance on the Atlantic run; but it was not to be. Designed as an improvement over her sisters Olympic and Titanic, her design and construction was heavily impacted by the loss of the latter in April 1912. Before completion she was famously requisitioned for use as a hospital ship by the British government at a time when thousands of young men were dying and being terribly wounded in battlefields across the ocean. She was lost after striking a mine in November 1916, prompting many to wonder what could have been had she survived. This HYPOTHETICAL drawing depicts Britannic as she was intended to look had she survived the war and become the beautiful Liner she was intended to be.
