This is a stunning, authentic vintage poster issued by Förnyade Ångfartygs AB Götha in the 1930s. Designed by the masterful Hans Erik Olsén, the poster features an Art Deco style rendering in shades of orange and brown. It depicts a map and a ship on its voyage from Gothenburg, Sweden, to Paris, France.
The text highlights the ships S/S Burgundia and S/S Belgia, with Belgia in service from 1930 to 1941.
The poster, mounted on linen, is in good condition, showing some discoloration at the upper part and a small paper loss on the left margin. It looks impressive and would be even more striking when paired with its twin poster, which features the ship on its northern route.
