Norway - the land of the midnight sun

This remarkable and rare original vintage poster, crafted by Ivar Gull, serves as a captivating promotion of Norway as an enchanting travel destination. Featuring the enticing text "Norway - the land of the midnight sun," this poster represents the esteemed first print from 1939.

Within its imagery, the poster transports viewers to a scene of locals adorned in folklore costumes, making their way towards a Stave Church, set against a backdrop of majestic fjords and towering mountains. Stave churches, emblematic of medieval wooden Christian architecture, once graced the landscapes of north-western Europe.

Despite a tear at the bottom, which has been expertly repaired, along with some minor wear and foxing at the top, this poster exudes timeless charm. Mounted professionally on linen with an acid-free barrier for preservation, it stands as a testament to Norway's allure and rich cultural heritage.
