📷 S/S Astraea, built in 1891, was designed for winter navigation in Finland’s icy waters. People stand on the ice beside the ship—were they inspecting it, waiting to board, or just enjoying the frozen landscape?
A historic sepia-toned photograph of S/S Astraea frozen in ice. Several people stand on the ice beside the ship, dressed in early 20th-century winter clothing. The ship, built in 1891, was designed for winter navigation and served under FÅA until 1930. The frozen sea stretches into the distance.
