There are cruise ships, and then there’s Queen Mary 2, the last true ocean liner still in service.
Whether you’ve sailed on her once or a dozen times, something about her stays with you and this new print we’ve created captures that magic perfectly. Here’s mine:
I’ve cruised on Queen Mary 2 on a couple of occasions. She is a ship quite unlike any other.
Her sleek Ocean Liner design is so beautiful, unlike more modern, bulky square cruise ships!
I took my parents on a memorable transatlantic crossing on Queen Mary 2. In pride of place on their wall is a scale portrait of the ship, hanging alongside a map showing our route. They love it!
This 1:480 scale portrait of RMS Queen Mary 2 is a true celebration of the last great ocean liner. This drawing originated from the painstaking work of the world renowned ship artist, Julien Garnier, whose signature appears on every print.
The Cruise Maps
This is not a generic photo. It is a print of the original detailed drawing by artist Julien Garnier.
The picture is UK-made and printed on Museum-quality matte paper.
It is very detailed – but not too “busy”. I can spend ages just standing, looking at it!
It is Available framed or unframed, and makes a great gift, or why not just treat yourself, you won’t regret it.
I definitely gained some good daughter points when I gave my parents theirs!
Know Somebody Who Loves History or Has Been Onboard?
It makes a great gift for birthdays, retirement, Mother’s or Father’s Day, or as a cruise countdown present. It really shows that you know the person and that you thought about the gift.
It will look perfect in any home office, or on any wall, come to that!
It is one of those things you never knew you needed, until you see it. It really is stunning.
