Jacquelin — English edition. This striking mid‑century travel poster shows a Loire chateau mirrored in a rippling lake; Jacquelin reduces the scene to bold planes of deep cobalt, lilac, and mint green for a modern, graphic effect. Printed in Paris by Hubert Baille & Cie for the French Railways (S.N.C.F.), this original poster measures 24" x 39" and is the rarer English‑language edition sought by collectors. Archivally linen‑backed and conservation‑mounted, the piece remains in excellent condition and is ready for framing and display. We include an IVPDA‑style confirming this is an original 1956 lithograph, not a reproduction. The poster’s saturated blue field and abstracted reflection make it a standout statement for a living room, office, gallery wall, or transportation‑themed collection. Its graphic simplicity pairs well with mid‑century modern interiors and contemporary gallery frames. Collectors appreciate original French railway posters for their design history and investment potential; this piece combines rarity (English edition), fine state of preservation, and clear provenance—printed by a noted Parisian house.
