The Ship is Loaded with…

Illustration 026

The special ship is loaded with good Danish food and drinks – with skilled Danish chefs and of course with Denmark’s landmark, The Little Mermaid, dressed in Danish quality fur.

The charming Danish “Food Ship” by Ib Antoni was made in 1964 when The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark announced a poster competition in the occasion of The Danish Weeks in Stockholm.

Ib Antoni won the competition with 4 illustrations: Wegner & The Chair, The Ballet Dancer, Royal Guard & Confetti Cannon and The Ship is loaded with….

In the subsequent years this series formed the chief motives in the exhibitions “The Danish Weeks”, shown across the globe in a cooperation between The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark, The Industry Council (Danish Industry) and Danish Agriculture.
