EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating chromolithograph captures the grandeur of the Steamship La Champagne, a French Line vessel that sailed across the vast oceans during America's 19th century. Produced as a promotional image for Duke brand cigarettes in 1887, this print showcases the remarkable artistry and attention to detail prevalent in commercial color lithography. The steamship takes center stage, proudly displaying its elegant design and powerful presence on the water. Its billowing smokestacks emit plumes of white smoke, symbolizing industrial progress and technological advancements of that era. The ship's flag flutters in the wind, proudly representing its country of origin. Amidst this maritime scene stands a woman, her figure exuding grace and confidence against the backdrop of bustling activity. She represents both femininity and strength - an embodiment of women who played significant roles within America's shipping industry at that time. The chromatic palette used by an unknown artist adds depth to every element depicted - from the vivid blues of sea and sky to warm hues highlighting architectural details on board. This lithograph not only serves as a collectible cigarette card but also provides us with a glimpse into America's rich history as it relates to transportation, commerce, and cultural exchange through water transport. Preserved today at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (the Met), this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty while reminding us of our nation's enduring connection with maritime trade.
