This vintage travel poster, likely from the 1930s, promotes Estonia as a destination, emphasizing travel by steamships such as "Estonia," "Kalewipoeg," and "Vasa." The design features a ship sailing gracefully in calm, blue waters near the shoreline. The shore, depicted in soft green and yellow tones, curves at the top of the image, creating a dynamic composition that guides the viewer's eye.
The text, written in Swedish, includes phrases like:
At the bottom, it reads:
"AB Förenade Speditions- & Rederiagenturen Stockholm," indicating the organizing agency for travel.
The poster has a clean, minimalistic style typical of travel advertisements from the era, with a clear focus on the ship and its journey. The condition is noted as having minor wear, with a tiny tear that has been mended. This piece is a charming and rare example of interwar-period promotional art for Baltic travel.
