First Class Dining Saloon on the 'Lucania' (1893)
Interior of the passenger liner 'Lucania' (1893) showing the long tables arranged fore-and-aft in the central area of the First Class Dining Saloon, on the Main Deck, a view from the starboard side looking aft. It is decorated in the Italianate style; the rampant lion insignia of the Cunard Line appears on the swivel chairs which were bolted to the floor to avoid movement during rough weather. The white and gold coffered ceiling is supported by Ionic columns.
The design and furnishing work in the First Class Dining Saloon was carried out by the Fairfield Shipbuilding & Engineering Co Ltd.
