Never Before Seen Color Photos of The Titanic

The Titanic Victims’ Savior

The Carpathia is the steamship that people remember for saving the passengers who survived the Titanic’s sinking.  Arthur Rostron was the ship’s captain, and he received an award for his rescue efforts during the tragedy. Photographed above is socialite Molly Brown handing him his prize.

In the end, around 705 people in total survived and boarded the Carpathia. It took about 3.5 hours for the Carpathia to reach the place where the Titanic sunk. Rostron and his crew didn’t see much when they arrived since the ship was already underwater.
