THEMISTOKLES VON ECKENBRECHER (1842-1921) NORTH GERMAN LLOYD, BREMEN. Circa 1906. 37 1/2x26 3/4 inches, 95x68 cm. Condition B+: minor restoration and overpainting at edges and in corners; bottom margin trimmed. One of at least two similar images designed by the shipping company Norddeutscher Lloyd Bremen featuring the globe, international shipping routes and four of her vessels. This version shows the routes to Asia and Australia, while one of the others shows Transatlantic routes. Although it is impossible to say exactly which ships are depicted, the four-stacker in the upper left is most likelythe Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse. These images were often issued in wooden frames with the shipping company's name imprinted on the wood. This is the English version.
