Making Friends（AH45)

Making Friends

These nostalgic images which exemplify an era when travel to the islands was enjoyed by only the privileged few who could afford not just the expense, but also the time that such a voyage incurred. These romantic visions travel back to a period when the steamer trunk was as essential a travel accessory as the overnight bag is today.

The power of these unabashedly sentimental images still evoke sweet reveries of a Hawaii that existed only in the imagination of a generation to whom Webley Edwards’ “Hawaii Calls” symbolized the “exoticism” of this paradise in the Pacific.

This print, which was inspired by an original masterwork, was painstakingly re-created as an original painting, then rendered using the latest state of the art printing technology. This process produces unparalleled color and detail.
