Interesting discovery -
Clipper’s Last Secret Revealed: Saul Steinberg Mural
In 1948, artist Saul Steinberg, whose cartoon-map View of the World from 9th Avenue may be the most famous cover ever to grace New Yorker magazine, drew a 20-foot wide cartoon mural for the cocktail bar aboard the Excambion. In the 1970s when interior designers “remuddled” the room aboard what was then the Texas Clipper, the mural was believed destroyed.
But in January 2007, as the ship was being prepared for reefing, the “lost” mural was found. All these years, it had been hiding under layers of wallpaper, paint and bolts. Some of the overlay has been peeled back to reveal exciting portions of the mural - including lively images of passengers, ships, the Manhattan skyline and the Statue of Liberty. Experts are now trying to determine how much of this damaged work of art can be restored.
