EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating chromolithograph, titled "Steamship Habana, Transatlantica Espanola" is a remarkable piece from the Ocean and River Steamers series. Created in 1887 by an unknown artist for Duke brand cigarettes, this print showcases the grandeur of steamships during America's industrial era. The focal point of the artwork is the majestic Steamship Habana, proudly sailing through vast waters with its billowing smokestacks and towering masts. The ship represents both Spain's Transatlantica Espanola shipping company and the United States' thriving transportation industry at that time. Surrounded by a picturesque ocean backdrop, this scene also features a woman elegantly positioned on deck. Her presence adds a touch of grace to the bustling atmosphere aboard the vessel. Flags fluttering in the wind symbolize international trade connections between nations. With meticulous attention to detail and vivid colors, this lithograph captures not only historical significance but also serves as a collectible cigarette card for enthusiasts. Preserved within The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection today, it stands as a testament to W. Duke Sons & Co. 's artistic collaborations during their heyday. As we admire this stunning artwork from over a century ago, let us appreciate how it reflects America's progress in water transport and pays homage to those who contributed to shaping our nation's rich industrial heritage.
