{"product_id":"india-the-wonderful-land-14688","title":"India - The Wonderful Land","description":"This original vintage travel poster was issued by the Government of India in 1958 to promote India as an international tourist destination. Titled “The Wonderful Land,” the poster presents a colorful montage of some of the country’s most recognizable monuments and historic sites, including the Taj Mahal, Qutub Minar and other examples of India’s architectural and cultural heritage.The bold, simplified design combines these landmarks into an imagined landscape rather than depicting a single location. The poster was produced by the Directorate of Advertising and Visual Publicity for the Government of India during a period when the newly independent nation was actively developing international tourism. Posters such as this introduced foreign travelers to India through its architecture, history and cultural identity. The artist of this poster has not been identified. Its strong use of flat color simplified architectural forms and dramatic scale is characteristic of Indian government travel posters produced during the 1950s, when modern graphic design was increasingly used to present India to an international audience.This is an Original Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction. This poster is conservation mounted, linen backed and in excellent condition. We guarantee the authenticity of all our posters.","brand":"Anonymous","offers":[{"title":"C1958 \/ 25 \/ 39.5","offer_id":51658447192310,"sku":"14688","price":796.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/postergroup.com\/en-de\/products\/india-the-wonderful-land-14688","provider":"The Ross Art Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
