About the Item
This 1990 original screenprint (sérigraphie) by Pierre Fix-Masseau, titled "Train et Globes", is a striking example of the artist’s signature style, blending streamlined modernism with bold, symbolic imagery. Known for his iconic Art Deco posters, Fix-Masseau’s work consistently celebrates the elegance and power of transportation, speed, and global connectivity—themes that are masterfully expressed in this piece.
At the center of the composition, a black steam locomotive with a vibrant red front charges forward on multiple converging tracks, evoking a sense of momentum and determination. Above, two overlapping globes represent the world interconnected through rail travel, reinforcing the idea of trains as a vital force in uniting distant lands. The train’s smoke rises in a jagged, vertical line, visually linking the locomotive to the global network above.
The color palette is dominated by shades of blue and gray, creating a cool, futuristic atmosphere that contrasts beautifully with the black and red of the train. The geometric simplicity and clean lines are reminiscent of Fix-Masseau’s earlier Art Deco influences, yet the minimalist execution lends it a contemporary feel.
This screenprint is a brilliant fusion of industrial design and artistic vision, making it a perfect representation of Fix-Masseau’s lifelong passion for transportation. Whether appreciated as a work of graphic art, a symbol of technological progress, or a collectible piece of modernist railway imagery, "Train et Globes" is a timeless celebration of the romance and power of trains in a rapidly evolving world.
