The Awful News at Lloyd s, with portraits of some of those on board the Titanic
The Awful News at Lloyd s, with portraits of some of those on board the Titanic, April 20, 1912. People receiving news of the disaster at Lloyds insurance offices in London, with portraits of passengers including British author and journalist William Thomas Stead (1849-1912). Some of Steads articles appeared to anticipate the sinking of the Titanic. The White Star Line ship RMS Titanic struck an iceberg in thick fog off Newfoundland on 14 April 1912. She was the largest and most luxurious ocean liner of her time, and thought to be unsinkable. In the collision, five of her watertight compartments were compromised and she sank. Out of the 2228 people on board, only 705 survived. A major cause of the loss of life was the insufficient number of lifeboats she carried.
