title: Childe Hassam

texts: An American Impressionist painter, <mask> was known for his urban and coastal scenes. Hassam was involved in promulgating Impressionism to American collectors, dealers, and museums. Over the course of his career, he produced over 3000 paintings, oils, watercolors, etchings, and lithographs. "Childe" was a name taken from an uncle of <mask>'s. On October 17, 1859, <mask> was born in the family home on Olney Street in Boston. His father was a successful businessman with a large collection of art and antiques. He came from a long line of New Englanders.His mother, a native of Maine, was related to American novelist Nathaniel Hawthorne. His father claimed that he was descended from a seventeenth-century English immigrant named Horsham. <mask> <mask> was taken to be of Middle Eastern descent because of his dark complexion and heavily lidded eyes. He adopted the nickname "Muley" (from the Arabic "Mawla", Lord or Master), after painting an Islamic crescent moon next to his signature. Hassam had an interest in art. His parents didn't notice his talent until he started drawing and watercolor. Hassam excelled at boxing and swimming as a child.A fire in November 1872 destroyed much of Boston's commercial district, including his father's business. After two years at high school, <mask> left and his family moved to Hyde Park. Hassam wanted to help support his family by working, despite his uncle's offer to pay for a Harvard education. His father worked in the accounting department of Little, Brown & Company. Hassam studied the art of wood engraving and was employed by George Johnson. He created designs for commercial engravings such as newspapers and letterheads. His preferred medium was watercolor and he began to create his earliest oils around 1879.<mask> established his first studio after becoming a free-lance illustrator, known as a "black-and-white man" in the trade. He illustrated children's stories for magazines such as Scribner's Monthly and The Century. He took drawing classes at theLowell Institute

He added a crescent symbol in front of his signature, which may have been an allusion to his penchant for implying Middle Eastern or Turkish origins. <mask> was told by his friend and fellow Boston Art Club member Edmund H.Garrett to join him on a two-month "study trip" to Europe in the summer of 1884.They traveled throughout the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, France, Italy, Switzerland, and Spain, studying the Old Masters together and creating watercolors of the European countryside. Hassam liked the watercolors of J. M. W. Turner. The watercolors that Hassam painted on this trip formed the basis of his second exhibition. <mask> was a teacher at the Cowles Art School. He joined the "Paint and Clay Club", expanding his contacts in the art community, which included prominent critics and "the readiest and smartest of our younger generation of artists, illustrators, sculptors, and decorators." He was capable of self-mockery and respectful acts, but he was also smart and witty against those in the art community who opposed him. The Barbizon tradition of working directly from nature was emphasized by the circle of William Morris Hunt."Atmosphere and light are the great things to work for in landscape painting," they said. The Boston taste for landscape painting, founded on this sound French school, is the one vital, positive, productive, and distinctive tendency among our artists today. It is a manly kind of art. Hassam married Kathleen Doane, a family friend, in February 1884. She ran the household, arranged travel, and attended to other domestic tasks, but little is known about their private life. Boston Common at Twilight was the first cityscape painted by Hassam. He joined a few other progressive American artists who were taking to the advice of French academic master Jean-Léon Gérme, who abandoned his

His watercolors continued to provide financial success despite the steady improvement in his oil painting. He and his wife returned to Paris in 1886 and were able to engage a well-located apartment with a maid near the Place Pigalle, the center of the Parisian art community. They lived among the French and didn't socialize much with other American artists studying abroad. <mask> moved to France to study drawing and painting. He took advantage of the formal drawing classes with Gustave Boulanger and Jules Joseph Lefebvre, but quickly moved on to self-study.It tends to put them in a rut and it keeps them in it, preferring my own method in the same degree. His first works were mostly brown. He was able to sustain his stay abroad thanks to the sale of these works and older watercolors. Hassam painted two versions of Grand Prix Day in the autumn of 1887. In this dramatic change of technique, he was laying softer, more diffuse colors to canvas, like the French Impressionists, creating scenes full of light, done with freer brush strokes. He may have been inspired by French Impressionist paintings he saw in museums and exhibitions, but he did not meet any of the artists. "The Ten" is a group of American Impressionists.The pictures he sent home attracted attention. In the midst of so many good, bad, and indifferent art currents, it is refreshing to note that Mr. Hassam seems to be paddling his own canoe with a good deal of independence and method. Three years ago his Boston pictures were compared with his recent work. The Exposition Universelle of 1889 in Paris was won by Hassam with four paintings. The emergence of progressive American

texts: artists who studied abroad but who did not succumb to French traditions convinced him that Americans could claim a school. An artist should paint his own time and treat nature as he feels it, not repeat the stupidities of his predecessors. He wrote that Claude Monet, Sisley, Pissarro and the school of extreme Impressionists do some things that are charming and that will live.Hassam was called an impressionist. When <mask> took over Renoir's former studio, he found some of the painter's oil sketches left behind. I didn't know anything about Renoir. I saw that the experiments were in pure color when I looked at them. The couple moved to New York City in 1889. In good weather, he produced landscapes out-of-doors. One of his first New York oils, Fifth Avenue in Winter, was painted in a studio apartment at Fifth Avenue and 17th Street.The street was traveled by horse-drawn carriages. He exhibited it many times and it was one of his favorite paintings. Le Figaro praised it for its "American character" and its use of dark colors, which are normally considered "forbidden colors" by strict Impressionists. He showed a bright pastels with white similar to what Monet might have used. His options and range were expanded by the sudden shift. Even as the movement itself was giving way to Post-Impressionism and Fauvism, his technique continued to evolve into Impressionism in both oil and watercolor. He avoided depictions of the Impressionists such as opera, cabaret, theater, and boating during his European stay.Geraniums, which he presented at the Salon exhibition in 1889, is one of the garden and flower girl scenes he painted. He won a bronze medal at the Salon shows in Paris. He made many connections in the art community through other art societies and social clubs, after befriending fellow American Impressionist artists J. Alden Weir and John Henry Twachtman, whom he met through the American Water Color Society. He contributed works from his European stay. Hassam painted the genteel urban atmosphere of New

texts: York that he encountered within walking distance of his apartment, and avoided the squalor of the lower-class neighborhoods. He said that New York is the most beautiful city in the world. The average American still fails to appreciate the beauty of his own country, despite the fact that there is no boulevard in all Paris that compares to our own Fifth Avenue.He captured well-dressed men in bowler hats and top hats, fashionable women and children out and about, and horse-drawn cabs slowly making their way along crowded thoroughfares lined with commercial buildings. Hassam's main focus would always be "humanity in motion". He was always confident in his artistic development and his subjects. They kept in touch with Claude Monet through Theodore Robinson, who was working in America and France. The four Americans represented the core of American Impressionism, dedicated to painting what was real for them, what was familiar and close to hand, out-of-doors when possible, and with the immediacy of light and shadow. The urban scene provided its own unique atmosphere and light, which Hassam found to be as picturesque as any seaside scene. Getting down a complete impression in oil was next to impossible because activity moved very quickly.To compensate, <mask> would find a suitable location, make sketches of the components of his planned painting, then return to the studio to make a total impression that was actually a mixture of smaller scenes. Appledore Island, the largest of the Isles of Shoals off New Hampshire, was famous for its artist colony. Social life on the island was centered around the salon of poet Celia Thaxter. The group was like a large family. Hassam said, "I spent some of my pleasantest summers where I met the best people in the country." Thaxter's flower garden, the rocky landscape, and some interior scenes were subjects for Hassam's paintings. He applied his colors "perfectly clear out of the tube" to unprimed canvas without pre-mixing.Wealthy buyers stayed on the island and were

The first large ship to be built in Provincetown in a quarter of a century was paid for by a Chicago millionaire and featured in Hassam's work.<mask>'s work was represented by dealers and museums in several cities and abroad. He did not have to resort to teaching for financial survival despite the critics and conservative buyers. <mask> was described as an artist with a keen knowledge of distribution and the ability to place his work. Three decades after the Impressionists' first exhibitions in France, <mask>'s work gained legitimacy in the American art community, and he began to sell to major museums and receive jury awards and medals, vindicating his belief in his vision. He was the Academician of the National Academy of Design in 1906. After a brief period of depression and drinking as part of an apparent mid-life crisis, the forty-five-year-old <mask> then committed himself to a healthier life style, including swimming. He painted nudes in outdoor settings and felt a spiritual and artistic rejuvenation during this time.His urban subjects began to diminish and he confessed that he was tiring of city life, as bustling subways, elevated trains, and motor buses replaced the graciousness of the horse-drawn scenes which he so enjoyed capturing in earlier times. The city's architecture changed as well. Stately mansions gave way to skyscrapers, which he admitted had their own artistic appeal. The skyscrapers are truly beautiful when taken in groups with their zig zag outlines towering against the sky and melting into the distance. Humans were shrunk in size as illustrated in Lower Manhattan in 1907 by Hassam's urban paintings. He spent his winters in New York and traveled the rest of the year, calling himself "the Marco Polo of the painters." In 1904 and 1908, he traveled to Oregon and was stimulated by new subjects and diverse views, frequently working out-of-doors with his friend,

Wood.Over 100 paintings, pastels, and watercolors of the High Desert, the rugged coast, the Cascades, scenes of Portland, and even nudes in idealized landscapes were produced by him. He adapted his style and colors to the subject at hand and the mood of place, but always in the Impressionist vein. As the art market was eagerly accepting his work, Hassam was earning as much as $6,000 per painting. He has been in the greatest of luck and merited success, according to his close friend and fellow artist J. I think he is on the crest of the wave after selling his apartment studio and selling more pictures this winter than ever before. He goes around with a pleasant air. The town of Paris was torn up like New York when the Hassams returned to Europe in 1910.There is a lot of building going on. They beat the Americans! In the midst of the vibrant city, Hassam painted July Fourteenth, Rue Daunou during the Bastille Day celebrations, a progenitor of his famous Flag series. When he returned to New York, Hassam began a series of "window" paintings that he continued until the 1920s, usually featuring a contemplative female model in a flowered kimono before a light-filled curtained or open window, as in The Goldfish Window. The scenes were popular with museums. One critic commented that the number of Hassam pictures there will be in the world by the time the man is seventy years old. Thousands of works were produced by Hassam during his life.<mask> would paint forty canvases in a season. He returned to watercolors and oils of coastal scenes, such as The South Ledges, Appledore, which uses an unusual balanced division of sea and rocks across a nearly square canvas, giving equal weight to sea and land, water and rock. The home of the famous writer is shown in the painting. The South Ledges, Appledore is owned by the American Art Museum in Washington D.C. Some of the paintings were still-life. At the Armory Show of 1913, Hassam displayed six paintings, where

They were nicknamed "the mammoth and the mastodon of American Art" at the press dinner.Hassam viewed the new art trends from abroad with alarm and stated that New York City is their objective point. The Armory Show drew attention away from The Ten. The Panama-Pacific Exhibition featured a gallery showing thirty-eight pictures. More than 400 etching and lithography works were produced by him during his later career. Some sell and some of the best do not, as Hassam commented, "some sell and some of the best do not." Some thirty paintings known as the "Flag series" are the most distinctive and famous works of <mask>'s later life. The "Avenue of the Allies" was named after Fifth Avenue in New York, which was the location of the "Preparedness Parade" in 1916.Thousands of people participated in these parades. Hassam supported the Allied cause and the protection of French culture because he was an avid Francophile. The Hassams were part of the war relief effort in 1914, when most Americans and President Wilson were isolationists. The government wouldn't approve of Hassam volunteering to record the war in Europe. He was arrested for sketching naval maneuvers on the city's rivers. Several of his flag pictures were contributed to the war relief in exchange for Liberty Bonds, in addition to the time he gave to many committees. He had high hopes that the entire series would sell as a war memorial set, but the pictures were sold individually after several group exhibitions.Claude Monet, among other French artists, had painted flag-themed works, but <mask>'s have a distinctly American character, showing the flags displayed on New York's most fashionable street with his own composition and artistic vision. In most paintings in the series, the flags dominate the foreground, while in others they are just part of the panorama. The flags of the Allies

The flags and their reflections are blurred in his most impressionistic painting, The Avenue in the Rain, which has been in the White House permanent collection since the Kennedy administration. Barack Obama put it in the Oval Office when he was in the White House. Various weather and light conditions are covered in Hassam's flag paintings. Hassam makes a patriotic statement without mentioning parades, soldiers, or war, except for a picture of a flag saying "Buy Liberty Bonds".The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the New York Historical Society, the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, the Princeton University Art Museum, and the National Gallery of Art all have Hassam's flag paintings in their collections. <mask> purchased a home in New York in 1919. He used nearby subjects in many of his paintings. The post-war art market boomed in the 1920s, and Hassam commanded escalating prices, though some critics thought he had become static and repetitive, as American art had begun to move on to the Realism of the Ashcan School and artists like Edward Hopper and Robert Henri. He received a number of awards through the 1920s, including the Gold Medal of Honor from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. The art competition at the 1928 Summer Olympics included his work. In his last years, Hassam traveled to California, Arizona, Louisiana, Texas, and Mexico.He died at the age of 75. He denounced modern trends in art to the end of his life, and he termed "art boobys" all the painters, critics, collectors, and dealers who got on the bandwagon and promoted Cubism, Surrealism and other avant-garde movements. Hassam was considered an "abandoned genius" until a revival of interest in American Impressionism in the 1960s. Hassam and other American Impressionists gained renewed interest as the prices of French Impressionist paintings increased. Further reading Kiehl, David W.

After Constantinople was conquered by the Fourth Crusade in 1204, the two brothers claimed to represent the legitimate government of the Empire. <mask>' descendants continued to emphasize their heritage and connection to the Komnenian dynasty despite the fact that his rivals governing the Nicaean Empire succeeded in becoming the de facto successors. <mask> defended his capital of Trebndizo from an unsuccessful siege by the Seljuk Turks around the year 1205. There are very little details of his reign. In 1214, <mask> was captured by the Turks in the field while defending Sinope, despite sending an envoy to seek their surrender, the city refused to capitulate to Sultan <mask>, and <mask> was tortured in sight of the Sinopians. <mask> was freed after the city became a vassal of Kaykaus.<mask> passed away at the age of forty. <mask> was the grandson of the Byzantine Emperor Andronikos I, who ruled from 1183–1185. The emperor's cousin, Andronikos, took refuge at the court of King <mask> of Georgia in the 1170s and was a governor in the Pontus when he heard of the emperor's death. His reign was turbulent and he was dethroned and killed in 1185, his son may have died from this. The two children that he left were the <mask> and David. Alexander Vasiliev thinks that it is possible that their mother was a Georgian princess. Scholars have speculated about when and how the boys arrived at the court of the Queen of Georgia.The hypothesis of Fallmerayer that the boys were taken from Constantinople during the chaos of their grandfather's fall from power in 1185 is supported by one school of thought. George Finlay believed that the boys were safe from Andronikos' successor, emperor <mask> Angelos, even though they were educated in the capital. Older writers, who had no

Fallmerayer's hypothesis was considered closer to the truth by Vasiliev in a 1936 article. It's not clear how <mask> and Queen Tamar of Georgia were related. The phrase "paternal relative" (  ) has puzzled scholars. The Russian scholar Kunik proposed in 1854 that the phrase meant that <mask>' mother was Rusudan, a little-known sister of Tamar.While in Georgia, Andronikos married an unnamed sister of king George III, according to <mask>. According to <mask>'s theory, <mask>' mother and/or grandmother were daughters of the houses of Palaiologos or Doukas, yet failing to offer an explanation why they are referred to as Alexios. <mask>' life was blank between 1185, when Andronikos was deposed and murdered, and 1204 when he and David arrived at Trebizond. <mask> and his brother found refuge at the court. "Georgian became their native tongue and they were thoroughly Georgian in language and education as well as in political ideals, but possibly some Greeks were among their attendants in order that they might be familiar with the language of their own country", said Vasiliev. The Empire of Trebizond's elite always looked towards Constantinople for their political and religious models, and there are few traces of Georgian influence in the administration and culture. <mask> and David occupied Trebizond in April 1204 after marching from Georgia.The Empire of Trebizond was founded at the age of 22 when <mask> was proclaimed emperor. One of the first historians to suspect that Tamar assisted her young relatives for reasons other than family loyalty was Vasiliev. In 1936, Vasiliev wrote that Tamar had a habit of giving money to monasteries and churches all

She supported her nephew's invasion of Byzantine territories to avenge the insult. <mask> entered Trebizond on a certain date. There is a lead seal of <mask> on one side with the inscription    [<mask> Komnenos] and   () on it.St. George's invitation to the prince to enter the city with his left hand was the most important achievement of his life, according to the inscription. Easter in 1204 fell on 25 April, while the memorial date of St. George was 23 April. The seal points out the date of the capture of Trebizond, so I dared to assume. <mask> and David began their march on Trebizond before news of the sack of Constantinople on 13 April 1204 reached either Georgia or Trebizond. The original plan was not to seize a base from which they could recover the capital of the Byzantine Empire, but to carve out a buffer state to protect Georgia from the Seljuk Turks. The more obvious motivation for the brother's return to Byzantine territory was that they had decided to raise the banner of revolt, depose <mask> Angelos, and return. The news of the Latin conquest of Constantinople reached the brothers after they had gained control of Trebizond and the neighboring territories.David made himself master of the rest of the Pontus and of Paphlagonia. The account in the Georgian Royal Annals of the invasion could be separated into two routes by the individual brothers. David and <mask> started in Imereti and reached Trebizond, while David captured Cide, Amasra and Heraclea Pontica. Although a minor port, Samsun was the Seljuk Sultanate of Rum's doorway to the Black Sea, and <mask>' occupation blocked the Sultanate from the trade and the opportunities of expansion. The brothers gained access

The Komnenos family was popular in Paphlagonia, with which they had long-established ties, as it was their home province, and one of their castles was said to be the ancestral castle of the Komnenoi. <mask> was forced to defend the eastern part of their domain from the attacks of the Seljuk Turks while David was in Paphlagonia.The first siege of Trebizond was launched by Sultan Kaykhusraw I. Nicetas Choniates wrote a letter to his master, the Nicaean emperor Theodore Laskaris, in which he compared <mask> to a member of the expedition that landed on the coast of Mysia to get water. The grandsons of Andronikos Komnenos ruled over the largest of the three Byzantine successor states after Theodore Laskaris pushed back the Komnenos brothers' western frontier. They had a domain from Heraclea Pontica all the way to Soterioupolis on the Georgian frontier. <mask> made parts of the Crimea a part of Trebizond. Cherson, Kerch, and their hinterlands were governed as an overseas province called Perateia. It appeared that Constantinople would soon be ruled by one of the Komnenos brothers.This was the high-water mark of their conquests. Theodore Laskaris had been active in the campaigns. Theodore Mangaphas was crowned Emperor in March or April 1206, and he had stymied attempts by Henry of Flanders to expand the newly founded Latin Empire into Anatolia. Theodore decided to invest in Heraclea Pontica in order to destroy the possessions of <mask>' brother David. In response, David sent a deputation to Henry of Flanders, who requested help from the Latin Emperor. Henry led his troops across the Sea of Marmara, threatening Laskaris' rear, and forcing him to lift his siege and return to his own territory. Theodore lost about 1000 men in crossing the Sangarios, which was in flood.Theodore did not give up on his attempts. He concluded a treaty with

David Komnenos disappeared from the scene during this time. A note in a manuscript written at Mount Athos tells us that David died as a monk of the Vatopedi monastery. He was an ally of <mask> and went from there to a monastic life. David somehow disgraced himself and was confined to Vatopedi by <mask>, according to Shukurov.David had become a vassal of the enemy of the Byzantine successor realm, the Latin Empire, at one point, when faced with another attack from Theodore Laskaris with insufficient men to draw on. <mask> supported Kayqubad against him in the internal politics of the Seljuk Sultanate. This is his interpretation of a puzzling passage in the account of <mask>, where he states that Sultan Kaykawus was at Sivas when messengers arrived with the report thatAlexis had crossed the border and seized territory belonging to the Sultan. If the interpretation of what lies behind this passage is correct, Kaykaus would have an even stronger reason to ally with Theodore. Sinope, the most important port on the Black Sea, was captured by Kaykaus and he hoped to open the sea to the Seljuks again. <mask> was captured in a skirmish while besieging the port city, and according to the legend, he was hunting outside the city with an escort of 500 cavalry. The city is protected by walls and lies on an isthmus, which provided Kaykaus with the leverage he needed to take it.<mask> saw the defenders of the city. "Suppose Alexius has been captured, the inhabitants told <mask>' man, who was sent into the city to negotiate a surrender." His sons in Trebizond are capable of governing.

After the loss of Sinope, the western frontier of Komnenine territories was only accessible from their base at Trebizond. The Empire of Nicaea and the other Greek lands were isolated by this loss.

He was a modest mathematician but also an extreme Nazi who helped drive Jewish mathematicians out of the University of Gttingen. He started work as part of a group of five mathematicians recruited by Fenner and which included Witt, Aumann, Aigner, and Teichmueller. OKW/Chi. The son of a merchant, <mask> was born in 1906. He graduated from the Abitur in 1924.He studied mathematics, physics, and biology at the University of Gttingen and handed over the state examination in those subjects. <mask> took an exam for a promotion. The most important woman in the history of mathematics was described by some as the ideal theoretical interpretation of the representability of any. He had been an assistant since 1928 and represented Edmund Landau in 1933 after taking a leave of absence. <mask> was only a mediocre mathematician, and his usefulness for Landau was mainly due to his ability in accurate proofreading, which he devoted a lot of attention to. <mask> was persuaded to convert to Nazism by Oswald Teichmller. He was involved in the publication of a book.<mask> taught at the private school "Institut Dr. Brechtefeld" and worked as a publishing director. He left a detailed manuscript about his discussion with Hasse, which is an important source for the events at that time in Gttingen. <mask> became a Nazi when he was given the Nazi party number 3,118,177 on May 1, 1933. He signed a vow of loyalty to Hitler and the National Socialistic State in November 1933. <mask> was involved in the removal of the Jewish mathematician Edmund Landau from the mathematics faculty at the University of Gttingen.

The speaker for the students was a very young, scientifically gifted man. Oswald Teichmller was that person. Soon after, Landau would leave the university. On February 13, 1934, the university Dekan asked <mask>, who was acting director of the mathematical institute at Gttingen, for recommendations on who should replace Weyl.The best mathematician was recommended by <mask>, but he preferred the Nazi Udo Wegner. <mask> wrote about how to save German mathematics on the morning of 25 April 1933. The tradition of Felix Klein that had been destroyed by the Jews could only be awakened by one man: Wegner. The Nazi were unsure if Hasse was fully committed to National Socialist policies, and tried to appoint someone to a second chair who was a firm Nazi supporter. Udo Wegner was a strong candidate, but the probability theorist and ardent Nazi got the second chair. <mask> and his cronies met with the new head of the Gttingen mathematical institute, who sympathized with the Nazis, to question him about his ancestry, even though <mask> and his cronies did not consider him reliable for the Nazis. <mask> refused to give the keys to the Institute to Hasse because he was not acceptable to the Nazis.<mask> sent a 400 page document to Dr Mentzel of the Reich Ministry for Science Education and Adult Education. The proceedings were interrupted by war work. <mask> was dismissed due to his Nazi involvement. The development of code-breaking methods and scientific decoding of enemy crypts were some of the things he worked on during World War II. The agency was managed by a man.

texts: The American naval architect of the mid twentieth century was <mask>. After World War I, he became a skilled project manager in the restoration of a former German ocean liner for American use. They were among the major designers of World War II era warships and cargo vessels, including the Liberty ships and the Fletcher-class destroyers. He was an advocate for high standards of fire prevention and hull integrity. The Liberty ships were designed with a priority of production simplicity and economy, but other designs tended to be sturdy, light, fast, safe, and enduring. The United States government and military subsidized the cost of building the ultimate ocean liner in the late 1940s and early 1950s. The contract to design and supervise the building of the United States entered service in 1952.Compared to contemporary vessels, it was much lighter and faster. It was built using a minimum of flammable materials. <mask> <mask> was born in Philadelphia to a wealthy family. He studied the plans of British battleships in his dormitory room at Harvard College after graduating from the DeLancey School. He did not have a degree in 1910. He received a Bachelor of Law and a Master of Arts in economics from Columbia Law School in 1913. He practiced law for two years at his father's request.While working as a lawyer, he and his brother Frederic Herbert started designs for a long ocean liner, each capable of producing 180,000 horsepower. The design had progressed to a point that he left the law firm in May 1915, and in January 1916 the brothers presented their plans to the Secretary of the Navy. The response was

World War I ended the testing of early designs in the Experimental Model Basin at the Washington Navy Yard. IMMC had a Chief of Construction in 1919. The first major contract was to convert the former German liner Vaterland into the American luxury liner. When Blohm + Voss asked for over $1 million for the original plans, <mask> decided to draw his own.The existing ship was designed by between 100 and 150 draftsmen. The name of the company was changed to Gibbs & Cox in 1929. The first of four trim white-hulled ocean liners was designed in 1924. Malolo was built under the supervision of the Gibbs Brothers. Malolo was the largest and fastest passenger liner built in the United States. Modern design and safety features were credited with keeping the disabled Malolo afloat while she was towed back to the yard after she was rammed during sea trials in 1927. Malolo's sister ships were built in the 1930s, 1931 and 1932.In 1930, The Grace Line contracted with Gibbs & Cox for four smaller ocean liners. The United States Lines was designed by Gibbs & Cox. The ships were used as U.S. troopships in the war. Thousands of American warships and cargo vessels, including destroyers, LST landing craft, minesweepers, tanker, cruiser, and Liberty ships, were created by Gibbs & Cox during the war. Between 1940 and 1946, 63 per cent of merchant ships of 2,000 tons up and 74 per cent of American naval vessels. They were built to the plans of the company. The US

texts: government and military subsidized the construction and operation of a new 1,000-foot ocean liner after the war.After overcoming resistance in the Truman administration for government involvement and competing designs, Gibbs & Cox was awarded the contract to design and supervise the construction. The United States surpassed most present day passenger ships in fire prevention and containment when it came to this ship. The design was revolutionary in the use of lightweight materials and construction techniques. She was much lighter than the largest liners, enabling higher speeds. After five years of design and 28 months of construction, the United States entered service in 1952. She won the Blue Riband as the fastest ship to cross the Atlantic Ocean, with an average crossing time of 10 hours. The ship had an excellent safety record between 1952 and 1969.She was the largest liner in the United States and the fastest liner in the world.
