PAUL BRUSSET (1909-1985)

MONT - GENEVRE / SPORTS D'HIVER. Circa 1930.

39½x25 inches, 101¼x63½ cm. Impressions France, Paris.
Condition B+: tear at upper right corner, lifting from linen; repaired tears at edges, some with slight overpainting; repaired pin holes in corners; minor creases and abrasions at edges and in image.

Located in the French Alps, but easily accessible from Italy, Mont-Genevre claims to be the first ski resort in France. This poster, with its sophisticated use of airbrushing and deceptively simple silhouettes of families and couples skiing, creates a compelling call to the mountains.

Hillion p. 165, Alps p. 156, Sports d'Hiver p. 151.
