About the Item

"Cote Basque" is an original lithograph of the Basque region of France created by Vecoux for the Societe Nationale des Chemis de fer Francais, the French National Railways. 24" x 39" paper 31 3/8" x 22" image 31 3/8" x 22" frame 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. "Cote Basque", created by Vecoux, uses bright and inviting colors to showcase the beauty of the French coast. This scene is in stark contrast to the destruction that the war had wrought in this area during the 1944 invasion. Because of this, the set of posters would have reinforced the public's hope in a peaceful and beautiful France. Printed in France for and by French National Railways; Publicite S.N.C.F.; No. 41-6, R.C. Seine No. 276.448B; Editions Paul Martial-Paris
