Le Puy is an important historical and religious locale in the southern Auvergne region of France. It is the starting point for the pilgrimage walk to Santiago de Compostela, and is also known for its lace making and lentils. This poster shows the beauty of the historic village, through the window of a home high above the town. A local woman works on her lace in the foregound as the town's terracotta rooftops and dramatic hills roll behind her.

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 during the 1920’s and 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.

This is an Original Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction. This poster is conservation mounted, linen backed, and in excellent condition with some minimal restoration along the fold lines. The photo is of the actual piece for sale, so you can zoom in to inspect further, although these lines are barely visible.
We guarantee the authenticity of all of our posters.

  • 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.
