- Lot Description
Andre Giroux (French, 1895-1965). "Gorges du Tarn" - printed in France - Chemins de fer de Paris a Orleans et du Midi (abbreviated PO-Midi), 1937. A stunning, original French travel poster created by Andre Giroux to encourage tourism in Gorges du Tarn, a canyon located in the south of France formed by the Tarn River, where visitors may take in the gorgeous scenery graced by majestic cliffs while hiking, rock climbing, kayaking, or canoeing. This destination also features breathtaking medieval castles that are over 500 years old. A fabulous vintage poster, replete with bold colors and vivid graphics. The travel industry used beautiful posters like this example to virtually transport future tourists to a world of romance, adventure, and luxury. Today they serve as not only attractive works of art but also special pieces of travel history. Size: 39.2" L x 24.5" W (99.6 cm x 62.2 cm)
The poster also has the PO-Midi logo at the upper left. Chemins de fer de Paris a Orleans et du Midi (abbreviated PO-Midi) was a French railway company formed in 1934 after the Chemin de fer de Paris a Orleans and the Chemins de fer du Midi merged.
