About the Item

Original vintage travel poster for the city of Rimini by the poster artist Rene Gruau. Size: 27.25" x 39". Excellent condition. Paper. An original poster was created for the city of Rimini to promote the beauty of its sunny beaches. This lovely woman in a straw hat holds a sizeable yellow beach ball to mimic the sun. The soft blue background conveys the peaceful nature of the beach, with Rimini written in the clouds in the stream of the airplane. This is one of the last posters created by Rene Gruau. With his stunning figures, arresting use of color, and dramatic line element, Rene Gruau developed his distinctive "New Look" in the 1940s, greatly influencing fashion, theatre, art, and commercial design. He worked for magazines such as Harper's Bazaar, Vogue, Femina, Marie-Claire, etc. Gruau's artwork is celebrated internationally for its masterful line and enduring style. Today, Gruau's works are collected and exhibited in the finest art institutions, including the Louvre in Paris. This poster, for the Italian seaside resort of Rimini, was the last produced by the master in his lifetime. This is an Original European Poster; it is not a reproduction.
