Erik von Bruun "Fregatti"

This "Fregatti" print was designed by Erik von Bruun. Erik had a dream about a six-masted frigate and turned it into an illustration. A small edition of the "Fregatti" print was made for Bruun's personal use, and the image has also been used in Vallila's "Fregatti" fabric. An authenticity certificate for this "Fregatti" print image has been issued by Peter Bruun.
