Graz Die Landeshauptstadt von Steiermark

This original and rare antique poster, designed by Austrian painter Daniel Pauluzzi, promotes Graz, Austria, as a destination. Graz, the capital of Styria, is renowned for its picturesque landscapes and rich history, nestled in the verdant and densely forested region on the eastern edge of the Alps.

Dating back to the early 1900s, the poster offers a typical depiction of Graz, featuring a scenic view over the Mur River to the iconic Schloßberg, with the city of Graz sprawling below. The Schlossberg, crowned with lush greenery, hosts a historic fortress and stands as a prominent landmark in Graz. Notably, in 1999, Graz's historic center was honored with UNESCO World Heritage Site status.

At the bottom, the poster proudly bears the inscription "Preisgekrönter Plakatentwurf von D. Pauluzzi" (Award-winning poster design by D. Pauluzzi).

Professionally mounted on linen and restored for a tear through the center of the image, the poster exhibits minor signs of wear and slight edge defects, while retaining vibrant colors. Despite being slightly rubbed and bruised along the margins, it presents an evocative glimpse into a bygone era and would make a striking statement piece when displayed on any wall.
