The SS Rotterdam appears to glide through a globe showing the change from day to night. Eppo Doeve, a Dutch artist born in the Dutch East Indies in 1907, designed the poster in 1959 for Holland America Line. It promoted the line's flagship, the SS Rotterdam. Doeve became known for advertising illustrations and maritime posters.
On the poster
The ship cuts across a stylised globe that shows the change from day to night, against deep blue gradients and starlit skies. The French tagline reads "L'avenir...DES AUJOURD'HUI!" [the future... starting today!]
