About the Item

This luminous and optimistic 1933 original lithographic poster by M. Jacquot was designed to promote the annual pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela, one of Europe’s most sacred and enduring spiritual traditions. In a striking Art Deco palette of warm oranges and soft pastels, the poster features a joyful young pilgrim greeting the viewer, staff in hand and hat raised, with the majestic Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela rising in the background. At his chest, the scallop shell—emblem of Saint James—marks his devotion and identity as a pilgrim. The lower part of the composition features a steamship, symbolizing the international nature of the pilgrimage and the era’s growing accessibility by sea. Jacquot’s style is both cheerful and idealized, evoking the energy of youth, faith, and the power of shared journeys. His rendering of the boy, full of movement and sincerity, invites viewers to participate in the collective experience of pilgrimage, linking past and present, tradition and modernity. Posters from this period promoting religious or civic gatherings are rare and increasingly sought after. This piece captures a unique moment when modern transport met ancient ritual, and faith was celebrated with graphic clarity and emotional warmth.

Circa 1925 original travel poster by Étienne Clérissi - Monaco PLM

Circa 1925 original travel poster by Étienne Clérissi - Monaco PLM

Located in PARIS, FR

This elegant circa 1925 original travel poster by Étienne Clérissi promotes Monaco for the PLM railway company (Paris–Lyon–Méditerranée), one of the great producers of luxury travel advertising in France during the early 20th century. The composition offers a breathtaking elevated view of the coastline, with the peninsula and its fortified architecture extending into the dazzling blue waters of the Mediterranean. Lush vegetation in the foreground, including agave and exotic coastal plants, frames the scene, enhancing the sense of sun-drenched beauty and refined escape that Monaco represented in the interwar years. Clérissi’s style combines painterly richness with a carefully constructed sense of atmosphere. The colours are warm and luminous, capturing the play of light on sea, sky, and stone, while the sweeping curve of the bay leads the eye gracefully through the landscape. Posters of this period often emphasised elegance, leisure, and sophistication, and this work fits perfectly within that tradition—presenting Monaco as both a natural paradise and a cultured destination associated with luxury, glamour, and the Riviera lifestyle. Produced when railway travel was at its peak and posters were a primary tool of tourism promotion, this work is not only a beautiful image but also a piece of cultural history. It reflects the romantic vision of the French Riviera that captivated travellers of the 1920s and continues to shape its identity today. Stylish, evocative, and artistically refined, it remains a superb example of classic PLM poster...
