This poster advertises the fun of mountaineering in the beautiful country of France. Mountaineering is also referred to as mountain climbing, or alpinism. The French Alps are known as the birthplace of modern mountaineering, offering tourists and locals the opportunities to climb the famous Mt. Blanc - Europe’s highest peak, Mt. Chamonix, Montagne Sainte Victoire, and Tour Ronde.

The poster features a chamois goat, an appropriate mascot of mountaineering, tromping atop of stylized mountains with snowy caps. The top of the poster reads "For the joys and thrills of mountaineering, choose France."

Unfortunately, there is little information on Lancaster, the artist of the poster.

What People Are Saying...

  • 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.
