The Railway Poster in Britain :

Excursion for History and Culture

1997/07/30 - 1997/08/31

This exhibition consists of 116 posters from the National Railway Museum in Britain, the largest railway museum in the world. It includes works by Cassandre and Kauffer. Railways were instrumental in turning tourism into a major industry, and railway posters advertised these railways. The exhibition looks at the appeal of posters as a visual history of British lifestyle and culture, covering fashion, tourism, and railways.

Artists: Cassandre / Kauffer
