About the poster

A blue electric train travels through deep mountain shadows towards yellow and orange Alpine peaks. The contrast between cool and warm colours gives this original travel poster its striking graphic character.

The poster advertises the Bayerische Zugspitzbahn at Garmisch-Partenkirchen. The lettering below promotes the connection to Hotel Schneefernerhaus and onwards towards the summit. The design is dated to around 1935; no precise printing year is stated. This example measures 42 × 59 cm.

About the artist

Edwin Hermann Henel (1883–1953) designed the poster. His Henel Garmisch signature appears at the lower right. Broad areas of colour, clear silhouettes and the diagonal movement of the train give the composition depth and energy.

Condition

10/10 – Perfect condition with beautiful patina. This rating follows the assessment of this example. The original detail photographs show the paper, edges and surface.

Framing

A slim oak or dark wood frame complements the colours of the poster. An ivory passepartout (mount or mat), used as a backing, creates space around the paper while keeping its original edges visible.

This is simply our suggestion. You can explore the framing options yourself and order your chosen frame and passepartout with the poster. We always ship lithographs and frames separately to protect the poster should the frame be damaged in transit. Inserting the poster into the frame yourself is relatively straightforward, and we are happy to help if you have any questions.
