'Samivel' Paul Gayet-Tancrède (1907 - 1992) Les Pyrénées, France Original vintage poster 91 x 62 cm A chamois atop a Pyrenean hill, overlooked by a soaring eagle and a snow-dusted mountain peak. The chamois, a mountain goat-antelope, has hooked horns when fully grown; this one is likely a kid. Samivel was a writer, an artist, a photographer, an explorer, and more. In 1948 he accompanied Paul Émile Victor on the first French Greenland expedition, making three documentary films in the process. His friends included Théodore Monod and Gilbert André - the latter the mayor of Bonneval-sur-Arc and one of the founders of the Vanoise National Park - and with them and others he spent his whole life aiming for the protection of the imperilled countryside. The graphic artist side of him had a life-long fascination with high mountains, and his illustrated books and series of posters of the French Alps have long been popular.
