About the Item

This exquisite original poster from around 1900 was issued by the Chemin de Fer du Nord to promote travel to the historic town of Montreuil-sur-Mer, located in northern France. Designed in the classic Belle Époque style, the poster features a striking layout of vignetted photographs bordered with stylized rose motifs, all printed in rich tones of black, red, and soft sepia. Celebrated as a “Ville Historique” and “Site Admirable,” Montreuil-sur-Mer is depicted through a series of picturesque scenes: medieval ramparts, Gothic churches, and tranquil rural landscapes, inviting travelers to explore its heritage and natural beauty. The typography and layout emphasize the accessibility of the destination, with travel times from Paris and London, and convenient connections to Berck and Paris-Plage. Printed by the renowned Imprimerie Champenois in Paris, this piece is both a promotional gem and a visual tribute to early 20th-century French railway tourism. A rare and charming artifact, it captures the romantic allure of regional travel during the golden age of rail.
