Summary

Description
Deutsch: Der Eisberg, mit dem die Titanic mutmaßlich kollidierte. Das Foto wurde vom Chefstewart der Prinz Adalbert am frühen Morgen des 15. April 1912 aufgenommen, wenige Kilometer südlich der Stelle, an der die Titanic sank. Er wusste zu diesem Zeitpunkt noch nichts vom Untergang der Titanic, Er entdeckte jedoch eine Spur von roter Farbe, ähnlich dem Anstrich der Titanic, nahe der Wasserlinie und schloss daraus auf eine nicht lange zurückliegende Kollision mit einem Schiff.
English: The iceberg suspected of having sunk the RMS Titanic. This iceberg was photographed by the chief steward of the liner Prinz Adalbert on the morning of April 15, 1912, just a few miles south of where Titanic went down. The steward hadn't yet heard about Titanic's sinking. What caught his attention was the smear of what appeared to be red paint along the base of the berg, suggesting it had collided with a ship sometime in the previous twelve hours. Other accounts indicated that there were several icebergs in the vicinity of Titanic's collision.
Esperanto: Oni supozas, ke ĝuste tiu ĉi glacimonto kaŭzis tragedion de Titanic. Ĉe piedo de la glacimonto estis granda makulo de ruĝa koloro. La foto estis farita la 15-an de aprilo 1912 proksime de la loko de la drono de Titanic.
Español: Uno de los icebergs al que se atribuye como causante de la tragedia del Titanic, fotografiado desde el barco SS Prinz Adalbert poco después del hundimiento.
Русский: Айсберг, с которым, как считается, столкнулся «Титаник». Этот айсберг был сфотографирован главным управляющим лайнера «Prinze Adalbert» утром 15 апреля 1912 г. в нескольких милях южнее места, где пошел ко дну «Титаник». Управляющий тогда еще не слышал о том, что случилось с «Титаником». Что обратило его внимание на этот айсберг – это длинный след красной краски вдоль основания ледяной горы, что означало, что она претерпела столкновение с кораблем в прошедшие 12 часов. Эта фотография и информация взяты из книги «„НЕПОТОПЛЯЕМЫЙ” Полная история Титаника», написанной Дэниэлем Алленом Батлером. Другие источники указывают на то, что в районе столкновения «Титаника» было несколько айсбергов
