What it is
A 1901 poster for the Red Star Line, Antwerp to New York, by the Belgian artist Henri Cassiers. This copy is held by the Hessisches Landesmuseum Darmstadt.
Why it matters
The Red Star Line was founded in 1871 by the International Navigation Company of Philadelphia and a Belgian partner. Cassiers, a painter of the Flemish coast, drew this crossing for it.
What to notice
The two port names carry the whole route, one at each end of the line.
The emigrant crossing, sold from the Belgian end.
