As total art objects and pinnacles of technological prowess, liners radically transformed the aesthetic imagination of the interwar era. Their impressive streamlined silhouettes and complex machinery attracted the admiration of avant-garde artists, who replicated them obsessively. Transatlantic crossings blurred the boundaries of time and place, becoming a space where anything was possible, often representing an entirely new existentialand cosmopolitan experience for artists.
