About the Item
This vintage travel poster was created to promote tourism to the Château de Chambord, one of the Loire Valley’s most celebrated landmarks, through the Paris–Orléans–Midi railway. The design highlights the château’s extraordinary Renaissance architecture, with its elaborate towers, chimneys, and spires rising dramatically against a vivid blue sky. The composition conveys both architectural splendor and the pageantry of history, making Chambord an irresistible destination for modern visitors of the time.The Château de Chambord, begun in 1519 under the reign of François I, stands as the largest of the Loire Valley castles and one of the most recognizable achievements of French Renaissance architecture. Its design, influenced by Italian styles and possibly Leonardo da Vinci, combines symmetry, grandeur, and ingenious engineering. With more than 400 rooms and a central double-helix staircase, Chambord was intended as both a hunting lodge and a monument to royal power. The artist, Charles Hallo (1884–1969), who signed his posters as “Alo,” was a French painter, illustrator, and designer renowned for his travel and railway posters. His works often merged meticulous architectural accuracy with a sense of drama and atmosphere, as seen here in the vibrant juxtaposition of Chambord’s architectural detail with a dynamic reimagining of its historical life. Hallo’s posters for the major French railways captured the romance of train travel and the grandeur of national heritage, making them both effective advertisements and lasting works of art. This is an Original Vintage Poster, it is not a reproduction. This poster is conservation mounted, linen backed and in excellent condition. We guarantee the authenticity of all our posters.

Loterie Nationale Original Vintage French Poster by Derouet Lesacq c1939
Located in Boca Raton, FL
This is one of a series of posters created for the Loterie Nationale (National Lottery) in France by a team of artists known as Derouet-Lesacq. In these posters, the element of simplicity is emphasized, allowing the artists to apply detail to the array of environments that these posters are set in.
This Art Deco style poster is for a special Homemaking (Arts Menagers) lottery drawing. The man in the center of the image is shown lounging on a chair, presenting an unplugged chord, demonstrating comfort after his lottery win.
The French Government promoted a nationwide lottery for many years, and during the 1930’s they commissioned artist Edgar Derouet to create many of their posters. Derouet realized his posters either alone or with one of his many collaborators. This poster is the result of a collaboration with Charles Lesacq, who worked with Derouet from 1938 to 1940.
Edgar Derouet (1910-2001) is known for his simplistic, geometric and modern advertising posters for the French Lottery (Loterie Nationale). Derouet was selected by France to create a campaign for the Loterie Nationale because of his well-known reputation as a graphic artist. In his earlier days, Derouet studied with well-known poster artists Paul Colin and George Hamel, allowing him to further perfect his illustration technique. Derouet won an award for Best Poster of the Year in 1936 and was featured at the International Exposition in Paris, France in 1937.
Charles Lesacq (1909-1940) was a French artist best known for his French National Lottery poster...
