This is an authentic vintage travel poster promoting Nuremberg's Christmas Market (Marché de la Nativité) in Germany.
The central focus of the poster is the Schöner Brunnen (Beautiful Fountain), a highly ornate Gothic-style fountain located in Nuremberg’s main market square, illuminated against a dark evening sky. Below the fountain, the Christmas Market stalls are bustling with activity. The scene captures visitors walking among the brightly lit stalls, adding a festive and nostalgic atmosphere. The surrounding architecture includes historic, half-timbered buildings that frame the square, lending a sense of timeless charm to the scene.
The bottom of the poster reads:
"Allemagne – Nuremberg, le Marché de la Nativité (tous les ans du 4 au 24 décembre)", which translates to: "Germany – Nuremberg, the Nativity Market (every year from December 4 to 24)."
The poster is in good condition, with some age-related wear. Small tear at upper right margin. Margin wear. It has paper strips at the top and bottom on the reverse side, likely added to reinforce and preserve the poster. Would look very nice framed.
