1958 Magnificently Chic Vintage Mid-Century Ad- Elegant Travelers prefer the Sleek Sublime Sophistication of Italian Line Cruise-ships- Bob Peak Artwork. Absolutely Delightful Original Vintage Mid-Century Ad taken from the pages of an April, 1958 issue of Holiday Magazine.During the days of the Mid-Century, the Italian Line Ships were considered the hallmark of modern design and sublime sophistication, the epitome of the high life of La Dolce Vita! Sumptuous, elegant and lavish Ad features a typically charming social scene- diners enjoy the continental charm of the dining salon where a beauty in a gorgeous pink ballgown is graciously introduced to the handsome hand-kissing captain while her date watches amused in his white sports coat. Artist Bob Peak gives this the kind of regal class distinction so popular in the waning days of the fifties just at the time when Jet travel was replacing lavish and leisurely cruise lines as the accepted mode of transport. Wonderful use of color- note the fabulous gowns of the diners and the moderne mural in the background!
