This is a rare and captivating original vintage poster issued by Blue Star Cruises in the 1920s to promote their summer cruises to Norway. These voyages promised travelers a journey through Norway's awe-inspiring coastal landscapes and cultural landmarks, with stops at key ports along the picturesque coastline.
The artwork, rendered in vibrant shades of green and blue, depicts a majestic two-funnel Blue Star Line ship navigating a fjord, flanked by steep cliffs. Trees frame the foreground, while passengers on deck marvel at the breathtaking scenery.
The Blue Star Line, a British passenger and cargo shipping company founded in 1911, operated until 1998. The poster remains in very good condition, mounted on linen with an acid-free barrier for preservation.
