“Ed lebe die Schifffahrt!”  [Long Live Navigation/Shipping] 

Berlin: A. Felgner, 1877.  10 x 14 3/4.  Lithograph.  Original hand color.  Very good condition. 

A delightful German print extolling ships and navigation.  The print shows three types of vessels on a river.  In the foreground is a small skiff propelled with an oar.  Sailing by is a sailing barge that looks to be a house boat, complete with family of father, mother, child and dog.  Beyond that is a steam passenger ferry heading in the opposite direction.  The legend “Vorwarts, 1877” appears on the side of the barge.  German verse is given below the image of this charming print.
