Tony-George Roux, railway poster for the Chemins de fer du Midi, 1923 · lithographic poster
What it is
Tony-George Roux’s poster for the Chemins de fer du Midi, 1923, advertising Font-Romeu as a climatic resort open all year.
Why it matters
Golf in summer and skating in winter were how a mountain hotel filled its rooms twelve months a year.
What to notice
The rink is in front of the hotel and the snow peaks behind it; the golf is in the railway’s own listing for the sheet.
A resort sells the whole calendar.
