Description:

This is an original vintage Swiss poster, featuring the iconic Matterhorn, one of the most famous peaks in the Swiss Alps. The black-and-white photograph captures an alpine scene with two mountaineers enjoying the breathtaking view, framed by the doorway of a rustic mountain hut. One climber stands, pipe in hand, while the other sits casually, their mountaineering equipment—ropes, backpacks, and walking sticks—visible nearby. The majestic Matterhorn rises dramatically in the background, its pyramid-like silhouette epitomizing the grandeur of the Alps.

The caption, "Summer in the Swiss Alps," highlights this poster's purpose as an advertisement for Swiss tourism, likely issued by the Swiss Federal Railways Publicity Office.

The poster is in good condition. Mounted on old linen. This timeless piece of history, with its adventurous alpine imagery, would make a stunning addition to any collection or display.
