The romance of Alpine travel is captured in Roger Broder’s scenic “Chamonix-Martigny.” Its art-deco style typifies Broder’s work as a painter of travel posters. Spectacular scenery is awash in bold, golden graphics that will charm both travelers and vintage art collectors.
In his job promoting the Paris-Lyons-Mediterranean Railway, graphic artist Roger Broders (1883 – 1953), was pivotal to poster art’s initial wave in popularity. Defining vintage travel poster art of the 1920’s and early 1930’s, his distinctive, exuberant Art Deco style goes along with his ability to evoke the romance and nostalgia of travel. The contemporary resurgence in his work’s popularity is part of the vintage poster art boom, with his original works fetching over $5,000.
This versatile and affordable poster delivers sharp, clean images and a high degree of color accuracy. Your poster is printed with an offset lithography press with a coating to protect the inks.
