Mid-20th Century Coney Beach Porthcawl British Pleasure Park Lithograph Poster
An original vintage travel advertisement poster - Come to Coney Beach Porthcawl Britain's brightest pleasure beach - featuring colourful artwork of a young smiling lady dressed in white waving to the viewer while enjoying a ride on a gold ornamented carousel horse named Susie on a merry-go-round with happy smiling people and families on the beach waving, swimming in the sea and sunbathing in front of a roller coaster ride, ferris wheel and observation tower, slides and other funfair attractions in the background. Opened in 1920, Coney Beach Pleasure Park is located in Porthcawl Mid Glamorgan South Wales and became a popular tourist destination from the 1950s-1980s; built as entertainment for the returning American troops in World War One, it was named after the Coney Island amusement park in New York.

About the Artist:
Jean Lurçat was a French painter, ceramist and tapestry designer, born in Bruyères on July 1, 1892 and died in Saint-Paul-de-Vence on January 6, 1966. He owes his fame mainly to his tapestry work, which he thoroughly executed in the twentieth century. He is frequently called the most instrumental figure in reviving the art of designing and weaving tapestries in the 20th century.
Although his first tapestries were executed and exhibited in 1917, it was not until 1936 that Lurçat turned from being primarily a painter to designing tapestries. In 1939 he and the painters Toussaint Dubreuil and Marcel Gromaire went to Aubusson, a French town historically associated with tapestry weaving since at least the 16th century, and established a centre for the making of modern tapestries in cooperation with the master weaver François Tabard. Among the most notable of the more than 1,000 tapestries Lurçat...
