A beautiful 1953 French railway travel poster promoting Paris, designed by André Planson for the SNCF. Looking along the banks of the Seine towards Notre-Dame Cathedral, the composition captures the city's artistic spirit with riverside easels, expressive brushwork and a warm, painterly palette. A superb example of mid-century French travel advertising, it celebrates Paris as both a cultural capital and an enduring source of artistic inspiration.
