EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the elegance and opulence of the Salon de Conversation on board the iconic ocean liner Ile de France in 1926. The image, taken by a talented French photographer from Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, showcases the meticulous craftsmanship and exquisite design that adorned this luxurious space. The seats featured in the salon were masterpieces created by Sue et Mare, while Maurice Lauer contributed to its grandeur with velvet tapestry seat covers. This particular ocean liner holds historical significance as it was not only the first major vessel constructed after World War I but also the first to be entirely decorated in the Art Deco style. As we gaze at this print, we are transported back in time to an era when steamers like Ile de France epitomized luxury travel. The ship's name evokes images of glamorous voyages across vast oceans, where passengers would gather in spaces like this Salon de Conversation to socialize and relax amidst lavish surroundings. With its intricate details and plush furnishings, this photograph serves as a reminder of a bygone era when traveling by sea was synonymous with sophistication and indulgence. It is a testament to human creativity and craftsmanship that continues to inspire us today.
