#47349, "Port side bow mosaic"


          

I don't know if anyone has seen this yet, but RMS Titanic, Inc has posted some new slides including the elusive port bow section imagery. Also there's video showing a thermotank (from the 1st class lounge roof perhaps?) http://www.rmstitanic.net/100th-anniversary.html

Cool. Will they release the stern port side mosaic as well?

I'd like to see a larger image of the portside mosaic.

Who knows? It seems likely the new Cameron book will include them though. Personally, the most frustrating part of wreck research is trying to piece together screenshots of a couple seconds of video from various documentaries into a coherent picture of the site.

Will the new book have these mosaics though? The book is advertised/titled as being about the three Cameron expeds- this RMS Titanic Inc/Woods Hole stuff is a separate concern.

One area I'm curious about is seen in Ken's art, mainly the overview painting of the site or the starboard profile of the stern. Far to the east of the stern in these paintings is a huge upside down piece of decking, bent into a U shape. This piece is very close to the Bigger Piece of hull plating.

In the bow mosaics, I'm surprised at how different the two sides appear on A deck. The portside looks more stable, while the starboard is not.

Be careful with the Ken Marschall paintings. In places he consolidates things he saw in separate imagery so their placement in the paintings may well be artistic license. It took years after Ken did those to resolve the navigation issues and fully determine where each photo was taken.

I see.

The piece I mention is seen in the upper right of this sonar image. You see the underside of the deck piece, it's ribs exposed. And right next to this is the "Bigger Piece" hull section.



Ken's painting also has this deck debris. Look at the large rectangular debris seen above the main mast.

You see it also as one of the furthest debris items from the stern.

Roy, this deck debris object is bent into a U shape. No identification on where it came from though.
