About the Item

"Chateaux De La Loire" is a signed original lithograph by Robert Abel. It depicts a view of one of the most iconic houses on the Loire River in France. Left margin has multiple areas of paper missing. 39" x 24" paper 31 3/8" x 22" image The SNCF, the French National Rail system, commissioned multiple posters to advertise and celebrate the connected locations on their routes after the Second World War. Abel's lithograph of the Chateaux de la Loire showcases the historic and natural beauty of the Loire Valley. This scene is in stark contrast to the destruction that the war had wrought all throughout France and the rest of Europe. Because of this, the set of posters would have reinforced the public's hope in a peaceful and beautiful France.
