PHOTOS OF DIANA: https://expedition.discovertitanic.com/
Most of Titanic's lost saw their story come to an end in 1912. Diana of Versailles' story, however, was just beginning. Just last month, she was rediscovered after 112 years on the ocean floor, and though she may be an inanimate bronze statuette, she has so much to tell us.
This week, WITNESS TITANIC host James Penca dives into Diana's history, analyzes her new photographs, and recounts what it was like to witness her rediscovery during Expedition 2024.
