Lamalou Les Bains - Belon
Lamalou Les Bains - Belon
(74cm x 104cm)
This vintage travel poster shows the women's baths at a therapeutic spa in Lamalou-Les-Bains, France. It is in these waters that people claimed to be cured of painful maladies and, according to this poster, for impotence as well. This travel poster invites tourists to travel by the Chemin de Fer d'Orleans et du Midi railroad to the attraction, which was located in Southern France. The artist, Jose Belon, enjoyed a successful career as a popular fine art painter from 1910 until his death in 1927.
This poster was created for the French Railway, P.L.M. – Paris, Lyon, Mediterranee. These three train hubs were the main departure points for rail travel in France into the 1930’s. PLM importantly connected the busy cities with the bucolic countryside, allowing a broad swath of the public to explore different regions; an activity previously afforded to only the highest of society.

If there's anything you want to know about posters, vintage or more modern, there's nothing Mr Ross doesn't know. His open and friendly manner helps one to choose the most suitable material whether for decoration, investment or whatever... I can't recommend him highly enough.

Just wanted to say thanks for the poster. You sent it on Thursday and it was delivered the following Monday (nearly quicker than it took us to get home) to our house in Perth, Australia. We have just had it framed. We love it; it goes perfectly with the room.

The Ross Gallery has the best selection of vintage posters I have ever seen. Seriously, if you are in the market, they are the people. And, they know everything there is to know about the posters' provenance.
