Colonia II 1901 Original Maritime Steam Yacht Lithograph Poster America’s Cup Era
An original 1901 maritime lithograph depicting the steam yacht Colonia II, rendered with refined precision and subtle coloration characteristic of early 20th-century marine illustration, showing the elegant vessel underway with auxiliary steam power and accompanying small craft in open water; associated with the competitive yachting culture of the America’s Cup era, the Colonia II was later modified, rerigged as a schooner, and renamed Corona, reflecting the period’s evolving naval engineering and design practices; this small-format lithograph captures both the technical sophistication and aesthetic grace of turn-of-the-century steam yachts, and is presented here professionally linen-backed, preserving its clarity and historical integrity.
