About the Item

Charming original Cote d'Azur 1960 SNCF French Railways Travel poster designed by Roger Marcel Limouse. Roger Marcel Limouse (1894 - 1990) - Born in Algeria, and after a brief career in civic administration in Tunis in 1919, he studied art under Jean Paul Laurens at the Academie Julian in Paris. It was at the Academie Julian, that he met and shared a studio with the painter Jules Cavaillès. Limouse is recognised as one of the last great painters of ‘Fauvism’ – a movement known for its use of bold colours and simplified form, as seen here on this original travel poster. The SNCF (Société nationale des chemins de fer français) is France's national state-owned railway company and was founded in 1938. A lovely design with wonderful colours and a poster in superb condition.
