EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating chromolithograph captures the grandeur of the Steamship City of Peking, a proud vessel belonging to the Pacific Mail Steamship Company in 1887. The image, part of the Ocean and River Steamers series by Duke brand cigarettes, showcases the remarkable craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating this collectible cigarette card. The steamship takes center stage, its majestic presence dominating the scene as it glides through the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean. The ship's colossal size is emphasized by its towering smokestacks billowing clouds of steam into an azure sky. A multitude of flags flutter proudly from its masts, representing both American pride and international connections. In this bustling maritime setting, women play a prominent role. A woman stands on deck with confidence and grace, symbolizing progress in an industry traditionally dominated by men. She represents not only female empowerment but also reflects America's growing industrial prowess during this transformative period. The lithograph transports us back to a time when steamships were at their zenith, revolutionizing transportation across oceans. It serves as a testament to America's booming shipping industry in the late 19th century. As we admire this historical gem from The Metropolitan Museum of Art collection, we are reminded of how art can capture moments in time that transcend generations. This print allows us to appreciate both artistic beauty and historical significance while celebrating America's rich heritage in water transport.
