Virgin Voyages has revealed images of new ship Resilient Lady’s mermaid to be emblazoned on the hull of the vessel.
Created by oil painter and muralist Jodie Herrera, the Latina mermaid will be at the helm of the 110,000-tonne, mid-sized vessel set to launch this August.
In a nod to the line’s Latin heritage, Herrera’s design was described as a "strong and powerful figure carrying sailors forward onto incredible adventures".
Inspired by the images painted on the fuselages of American WWII planes, Virgin Voyages’ mermaids are a "symbol of individuality and rebellion".
Due to sail its maiden voyage this August, Resilient Lady will depart Athens on a series of seven- and nine-night voyages. Among the ports of call are Santorini, Rhodes, Mykonos, Catania, Palma de Mallorca and Lisbon.
