Suisse Ligne Électrifiée du Gothard

Presenting an exquisite original vintage railway poster dating back to 1924, featuring the captivating text "Suisse Ligne Électrifiée du Gothard" and masterfully designed by Daniele Buzzi. Illustrating the journey through the renowned Gothard tunnel beneath the Swiss Alps, this trans-alpine railway seamlessly connects the northern reaches of Europe to the scenic lakes of Ticino and Italy.

A crucial component of the international railway network, particularly along the Rotterdam-Basel-Genoa corridor, this railway line plays a pivotal role in linking northern and southern Europe. The poster showcases a sleek, newly electrified SBB train emerging with speed from the Gothard tunnel, gracefully traversing a railway bridge. Below the bridge, a glimpse of local housing adds a touch of the picturesque to the scene.

Regarded as a rare masterpiece, this poster has been meticulously mounted on linen, undergoing minor restorations. Some light age wear and a slightly wavy bottom margin. A true gem from the vintage era of Swiss railway travel.
