Date: 1895
Size: 41" x 29" (105x74 cm)
Condition A+, newly linenbacked.
Artist: F. HUGO D'ALÉSI (1849-1906) Among the designers who did travel posters, d'Alesi was not only the most prolific, but, according to French poster expert Alain Weill, also the most meticulous; to get just the right shading or minute detail of the scene, he insisted on making the printer use more plates than customary---sometimes as many as twenty. The results, however, are truly spectacular.
