Description from the seller

Splendid and evocative advertising poster, a 70s-era reissue dedicated to one of the most fascinating routes of the merchant navy of the 20th century: the connection between Italy, India, and the Far East operated by the historic shipping company Lloyd Triestino. At the center of the work looms the stylized silhouette of the legendary transatlantic liner Conte Biancamano, a masterpiece of Italian engineering and naval design, famous worldwide for the splendor of its interior fittings and for its elegance. The graphics, with a strong vintage flavor, play on the contrast between the ocean’s blue hues and the yellow diagonal that frames a suggestive Oriental setting, completed by the typical Oriental paper umbrellas and a traditional temple. An indispensable collectible for lovers of the history of ocean liners (Ocean Liner memorabilia) and Italian maritime collecting.
