Created by the French School in the 19th century, this print depicts a ship specially designed to transport preserved butchered meat from America to Europe. The vessel, known as "le frigorifique" was constructed in 1876 and revolutionized the food industry with its innovative refrigeration system. This technological marvel allowed for the safe transportation of perishable meats across long distances, ensuring their freshness upon arrival.

The image has been digitally cleaned to enhance its clarity and detail. The significance of this artwork lies not only in its depiction of a specific ship but also in its representation of the broader impact that refrigeration had on food production and distribution.
