Cunard's Queen Victoria begins to take shape.

These construction photos show the progress on the Grand Lobby

Valencia, CA - September 6, 2007 - With a little more than three months to go before her much-anticipated December 10 Naming Ceremony, Cunard Line's Queen Victoria is taking shape and coming to life.

Currently under construction at the Fincantieri Shipyard in Marghera, Italy, Queen Victoria's elegant and sophisticated style is gradually coming together day by day.




Pictured at left: The Grand Lobby, sure to be one of the ship's most popular meeting places, will boast triple-height ceilings, a double sweeping staircase and sculpted balconies. Highlighting the dramatic space will be a signature piece of artwork, anchoring the staircase landing and setting the stage for a dramatic sense of arrival.


Details about the signature art piece for the Grand Lobby are coming soon. Stay tuned for additional previews of Queen Victoria's progress.
