About the Item

Original Vintage Poster by Arsène Naulez produced in 1904 to promote tourism between Paris and London. Artist: Arsène Naulez Title: Chemins de Fer de L'ouest – et de London Brighton & South Coast Date: 1904 Size (w x h): 26.4 x 39.4 in / 67 x 100 cm Printer: Imp. P. Dupont, Paris Materials and Techniques: Colour lithograph on paper Linen backing: Yes Condition: A (Designates a poster in very good condition. The colours are fresh and there are no or very few paper losses. If there are imperfections they are marginal and imperceptible). Additional Details: It highlights the partnership between the French West Railways and the London-Brithon and South Coast line ("London, Brighton and South Coast Railway" (LB&SCR)). The London, Brighton and South Coast Railway was formed in 1846. In 1923 it became part of the Southern Railway. The Western Railway Company was founded in 1855 as a result of the merger of several small regional railway companies. It operated a network of railway lines that linked Paris to many important destinations such as Le Havre, Cherbourg, Rouen, Caen, Rennes, Brest, Nantes, etc... In 1904, the train journey between Paris and London was a very different adventure from the one we know today with the Eurostar and the Channel Tunnel. At this time there was no direct Channel Tunnel, which meant that the journey involved changing trains and using boats to cross the Channel. The trip started at the Gare du Nord in Paris. Travelers would take a train to Calais, a port city on the northern coast of France. In Calais, travelers had to take a ferry to cross the English Channel and reach the south coast of England. Once in England (usually Dover), travelers took another train to London. Arsène Naulez stages a young woman who sells flowers on a London bridge with her back to the Big Ben tower and the British Parliament. Boats sail on the Thames, and Westminster Abbey can be seen in the background of the poster. We have been dealing in art, antiques and vintage posters for more than 50 years and, upon request, we are very happy to provide you with Certificate of Authenticity.
