Mr. Joseph Davies, a photographer on the Titanic
In 1912, 17-year-old Mr. Joseph Davies, a photographer on the Titanic, tragically perished along with the ship in the Atlantic Ocean. Recently, in 2020, a historian investigating the Titanic’s sinking recovered footage captured by Mr. Joseph’s camera. The camera was found in 1989, miraculously still intact. For years, attempts to recover the footage from the films were unsuccessful until the advancement of state-of-the-art technology in 2020 made it possible. The recovered footage captures the moment when Mr. Joseph lost his life while trying to document the Titanic’s sinking. His remains were never found, leaving his brave and tragic story forever connected to the historic disaster.
