Extremely rare or one of a kind image. Type & Size: A 6.5x4.5" original photograph.Condition: Original and in good to fair vintage condition. Some of the photos in this set are mounted on cardboard, and others are delicate with some thin (but not torn) areas. Please see photo scans for exact condition and any imperfections. A stunning black-and-white photograph captures the RMS Lancastria, a British ocean liner, anchored at Merok in 1933. The ship is majestically framed by towering mountains and serenely calm waters. In the foreground, smaller boats are visible, adding to the peaceful yet grand atmosphere of the Norwegian landscape.The RMS Lancastria was known for its role as a passenger ship, and later, tragically, as a victim of World War II when it was sunk by German bombers in 1940. The location, Merok, is part of the majestic Geirangerfjord, famous for its breathtaking views and natural beauty, considered a UNESCO World Heritage site.Caption provided: "1351. S.S.
