Contest Brief

I'm looking for a talented graphic designer to create a bespoke, vintage-inspired graphic to be printed on the back of a t-shirt. The design will be the sole, central feature and should encapsulate a yesteryear, Collier and Ives-inspired aesthetic.

Key Elements:
- A graphic illustration of a specific vintage trophy
- Vintage banners
- Rowing oars

Style:
- The design should have a minimalist yet detailed feel, drawing inspiration from 19th-century art.

Color Palette:
- The entire design should be in various shades of navy blue.

Your Expertise:
- Proficient in graphic design, with a keen eye for minimalist vintage aesthetics.
- Experience in creating bespoke artworks for clothing.
- Ability to work from photographs to capture the desired feel and style.

Specific Instructions for use of attached photos:
- I need vector art to give to a t shirt maker
- This design should fill the ENTIRE back of the t shirts
- the shirts will be cream or pale yellow
- I'd like the graphic to be in all shades of navy blue...ideally with a "washed out / vintage look" to it (like it's been through the washer forever)
- The centerpiece of the design should the Stotesbury Cup trophy
- an ACTUAL PHOTOGRAPH of this tropy is attached under file "Stotesbury Trophy"
- Using AI Shutterstock, I generated a "graphic" look of this trophy. It's in the file "Graphic Look of Stotesbury Trophy." You get the idea...I don't want an actual photo of the trophy; I want an "illustrative" graphic version of it. But, it has to be as close to teh actual shape/outline of the actual real trophy as you can possibly make it.
- The file "Primary Inspo" shows you nearly identically what I'm looking for except.....
- Where it says "Stotesbury Cup" across the top....place the words "Regatta Team" instead
- Have the words "Stotesbury Cup" instead appear in a thick ribbon at the bottom.
- In the space above that ribbon, write "Est. 1927" (That's the year the regatta was founded
- There are a lot of extra little flourishes on the sides of the trophy in this "inspo" trophy....you don't have to use or have all those, although other relevant words you can add in include "Schuylkill River" (That's the venue) and "Philadelphia, PA" (that's the city it takes place in

I want the whole thing to have a very vintage, old-timey type of graphic feel
