Own a profound piece of maritime history and the glamour of the Edwardian Age with this iconic White Star Line Olympic & Titanic poster reproduction. This c. 1911 artwork showcases the two largest and most luxurious ships in the world, symbolizing the height of pre-war engineering confidence.
Created by artist Montague Birrell Black just before the Titanic's maiden voyage, this poster served as White Star Line's bold declaration of supremacy in the transatlantic trade, emphasizing size and luxury over the speed of rivals like Cunard. The illustration typically depicts the massive RMS Olympic in the foreground, with the RMS Titanic steaming majestically in the distance. The poster promoted the liners as "The Largest Steamers in the World." After the Titanic sank in April 1912, the White Star Line immediately recalled and destroyed nearly all copies, making this design incredibly rare and historically poignant. This print offers a potent blend of vintage maritime art, Edwardian aesthetics, and the irresistible drama of a pivotal moment in history.
