Original Vintage French Travel Poster for "Paris a Londres" by Grun 1899

More Views

One of the main drawbacks of the railway poster is that it is necessary to incorporate consistently overabundant text in the picture. For his debut in this area, Grun finds no difficulty in sketching a charming scene. The problem of the text ends up in two rectangles at the bottom left. Jules-Alexandre Grun (25 May 1868 – 15 February 1934) was a French post-impressionist painter, poster artist, and illustrator.[1] Grun's best known painting is called The Dinner Party, produced in 1911. It was, however, in the fields of poster art and illustration art, for which he was famous. He was employed at a large printing company in Paris and his artistic director was Jules Cheret. Cheret was also his main competitor in poster art. (Wiki) This Poster is published in Grun Posters Book by Israel Perry and Alain Weill , 2005, page 122
