EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating chromolithograph captures the majestic Steamship Narragansett, a proud vessel of the Stonington Line, in all its glory. Produced as a promotional piece for Duke brand cigarettes in 1887, this print is part of the iconic Ocean and River Steamers series (N83). The steamship stands tall against a picturesque backdrop of blue waters and clear skies, symbolizing America's booming shipping industry during the 19th century. The meticulously detailed lithograph showcases every intricate feature of this technological marvel - from its towering smokestacks to its elegant flag fluttering proudly in the wind. Amidst this industrial scene, we see a group of women on deck, embodying both grace and strength. One woman gazes out towards the horizon with an air of determination, representing the pioneering spirit that defined America at that time. Another woman holds up a banner bearing the name "Duke" subtly reminding viewers of their association with this renowned cigarette brand. This artwork not only celebrates transportation and commerce but also serves as a testament to American ingenuity and progress during this era. As we admire this stunning print from The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, it invites us to reflect upon our nation's rich history while appreciating artistry captured through color lithography techniques.
