The S.S. Lurline glides by New York City in this striking Matson Lines photograph. A symbol of modern ocean travel, the image captures the majestic liner and the optimism of an era when transoceanic voyages linked America’s coasts to Hawaii and beyond. The photograph highlights the scale of the cruise ship in relation to the dockside infrastructure and the cityscape. Strong horizontal lines of the ship's hull and stacked decks contrast with the city's vertical architectural forms in the background. Lurline's maiden voyage departed New York City on January 12, 1933, bound for San Francisco via the Panama Canal.
