Carnival
Splendor debuted as Carnival's largest and most innovative ship in
the fleet only prior to the arrival of Carnival Dream in
September of 2009. Along with being Carnival's larger fleet mate
come impressive figures.
Carnival Splendor will visit 61 ports of call in 29 countries
across three continents. Approximately 22,000 meals will be served
in the reservations only Pinnacle Supper Club. Photographers will
take more than 1.5 million digital images and portraits.
Artwork throughout the Carnival Splendor will look familiar to
past Carnival Cruise Line guests who have sailed Carnival Freedom,
for example. Artist Joan Barber was commissioned to paint ten
murals for the aft staircase of Carnival Splendor. The
overall theme of Barber's work on Carnival Splendor is that of
being a sense of abandonment whereas the works on Freedom
reflected recreational aspects of the 1940's post-war American culture.
Stateroom corridors are adorned with a collection of paintings inspired
by the World of jazz by Augusto Vignali. Artist Devita Writer
created 18 original works of art for staterooms and suites. The
central staircase features nine works of art by artist Marian Westall
and they depict underwater life. Sculptor Sara Righi created works
for poolside areas as well as nearby the Royal Flush Casino. Works
by Luciano Vistosi along the Promenade depict feelings of elegance and
tranquility.
Carnival Splendor's
décor and artwork keep guests engaged while on their personal holiday
wherever in the World they may be sailing.
