Le Mont Saint Michel is a 1947 English language French travel poster by Starr. The poster carries the tagline, "The Pearl of French Medieval Art," for the medieval architecture of the town centered on the monastery. The town was built on a hill top that is naturally protected by the changing tides that surround it as an island at times during the year.


Throughout the years, SNCF has commissioned prominent artists to depict well known destinations in France. These beautiful posters encouraged train travel by the French public as well as by visitors. This series is well known to collectors for their classic imagery and insight into the culture of 1950’s era France.

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.
