“From the depths of the Titanic: Treasures of the legendary liner from the man who explored it”
September 1, 1985. The Titanic, missing since April 15, 1912, is found in the North Atlantic where it lies at a depth of 3,821 meters.
As requested by the French Research Institute for the Exploitation of the Sea (Ifremer), Paul-Henri Nargeolet, commander in the French Navy, will direct underwater research as part of the expeditions to the wreck, from 1987 until his death in 2023.
The hundreds of hours of diving will reveal the last secrets of the liner.
More than 5,500 objects will be brought to the surface: pieces of hull, jewellery, bottles of champagne, fabrics, luggage – so many witnesses who tell the story of the ship’s heyday and its tragic destiny.
Through the fabulous story of his expeditions, Paul-Henri Nargeolet brings to life the story of the Titanic, that of its passengers and its crew, offering a unique point of view on this maritime disaster which fueled all fantasies.
