DescriptionSpanish cruiser Vizcaya in New York Harbor in 1898.ogv |
English: A splendid picture of the Spanish battleship "Viscaya", the pride of the Spanish navy, taken on the occasion of her visit to New York Harbor, when her captain hinted at his ability to blow holes through New York's skyscrapers. In this picture the vessel makes a very beautiful appearance steaming out to sea under full headway. But what a contrast to a later Biograph picture when the vessel was a smoking hulk wrecked on the shore of Cuba, battered topieces by the guns of the Oregon. |
