    Interesting enough, in 1962 the captain of USS Independence declared the Amerigo Vespucci "the most beautiful ship in the world" while the two ships went by in the Mediterranean sea.
    In 2022, after 60 years, it was the USS George Bush that crossed the route with Amerigo Vespucci and its captain renewed the title: "After 60 years your are still the most beautiful ship in the world!".

    It's interesting to know that The "Amerigo Vespucci" was designed in 1930 by engineer Francesco Rotundi, lieutenant colonel of the Naval Engineers and director of the Royal Shipyards of Castellammare di Stabia (near Naples), taking up the designs of the sailing ship "Monarca", the flagship of the Royal Navy of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies.

    There was a twin ship, named Colombo. It was given to the USSR after WW2 as a reparation to the winning countries. After using it as a training ship, just like the Amerigo, the USSR did not carry out maintenance, transformed it into a merchant ship to transport wood, which eventially caught fire, damaging the ship for good. It was demolished around the 70's

    Beautiful piece of art. Pity Stalin requested the sister of the Amerigo Vespucci, the Cristoforo Colombo as reparation.
