Intersecting diagonal lines which create a feeling of speed, and a fashionable Art Deco look, give this poster an eye-catching appeal. Skiers in brown, black and white are casting blue shadows across the snow. "In this poster Coulon masterfully plays with the color blue, using it to suggest both the mountain and the sun."
