Paradise Revisited

Island Feast, 1940 published 1953 by Eugene Savage, S.S. Lurline, Matson Line.

Savage created a set of nine murals for the Matson ship line (which sailed to Hawaii) in 1940 but they were not used until the early 1950's because the ships had been requisitioned for service in WWII. Savage received awards for his artwork which was so popular among the tourists it was reproduced in a set of prints and as Aloha attire.
