In 1935 the S. C. Johnson & Son company made a major
aerial expedition to Brazil in a Sikorsky S-38 to search
for the Carnauba palm tree, the source of the world’s
hardest natural wax. In 1998 the company re-enacted the
Carnauba Expedition by flying an exact replica of the original
Sikorsky S-38 aircraft from Racine, Wisconsin to Fortaleza,
Brazil.
In this painting, the replica S-38 is shown flying along
the western shoreline of the Caribbean island of Tobago.
