Rasmussen was a Danish illustrator and poster designer. This poster, considered to be his best, uses the perspective created by the tracks to draw the viewer's eye to the horizon, from which a train approaches at full speed. The asymmetric typography is organized perpendicularly to the meter that shows the speed: 120 kmh. Usually overprinted in different languages beneath "DSB." This is the French version. Metiers 1939 p. 94, Weill no. 469.
