EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating chromolithograph, titled "Steamship Alaska, Guion Line" is part of the Ocean and River Steamers series (N83) created for Duke brand cigarettes in 1887. The artwork showcases a magnificent steamship sailing through American waters during the 19th century. The image exudes a sense of grandeur as the colossal vessel dominates the composition, proudly displaying its name on its side. The ship's billowing smokestacks emit plumes of white smoke, symbolizing power and progress in an era defined by industrial advancements. Flags flutter atop the mast, representing national pride and international trade. In this bustling scene, we witness women aboard the ship enjoying their leisure time while indulging in smoking Duke cigarettes—a popular pastime at that time. Their presence adds a touch of elegance to this otherwise male-dominated industry. The artist skillfully employs vivid colors to bring life to every detail: from the deep blue hues of water surrounding the ship to the rich reds adorning flags and banners. This meticulously crafted lithograph captures not only a moment in history but also reflects America's growing influence as an emerging global power. Preserved within The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection today, this print serves as a testament to both artistic craftsmanship and historical significance. It offers viewers a glimpse into America's maritime heritage while highlighting societal norms and commercial interests prevalent during that period.
