Summary

Description
English: Two steamships of the Hamburg-America Line, SS Rhaetia (left) and SS Prinz Oskar, in internment at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States prior to America's entry into World War One. The photo may have been taken shortly before the United States broke diplomatic relations with Germany on 3 February 1917. While the caption in the source does not clearly identify which of the ships is which, Rhaetia can be identified by the high air vents on the foredeck and the more complex rigging assembly on the foremast.
Date Between August 1914 and February 1917
