Lacaze was a landscape painter who began designing posters for the French Railway in 1910. His well-composed images are consistently colorful and detailed. Renowned for his travel posters, they are primarily landscapes and often include local architectural or structural highlights, and rarely feature people. Vittel was a spa resort most often promoted for its waters and natural beauty, but here Lacaze promotes the local golf course and the grand hotel.
