Title: Savoie France – Fêtes du centenaire Artist: Auriac Date: 1960 Printer: Société d’Exploitation Etablissements de La Vasselais, Paris Size: 27 x 39 inches
This poster image was used both for celebrating 100 years of Savoie Region and also exists with the title Megeve. You can see its summertime with flowers about but in the background is the famous Mont Blanc which stays white with snow through the whole summer.
The “célèbre clocher à bulbes” (famous onion-shaped bell tower) in the Savoie region of France refers to the distinct bulbous bell towers found in many churches in the region. These towers, also known as “clochers à bulbes”, are a hallmark of Baroque architecture introduced in the 17th and 18th centuries, especially under the influence of the Counter-Reformation.
These onion-shaped domes are particularly common in alpine regions, including Savoie, and are a reminder of the strong religious influence in the area. One of the most famous examples in Savoie is the bell tower of the Saint-Martin Church in Saint-Martin-de-Belleville, though many other towns and villages in Savoie feature similar structures.

Description and History
Rare original Spanish travel poster promoting the famous Semana Santa (Holy Week) celebrations in Seville, created in 1951 by the artist Pablo Sebastián. This striking lithograph captures the solemn majesty and deep religious tradition of the city’s processions—one of Spain’s most important annual events, marked by candlelit parades, penitents, and richly adorned religious icons carried through the streets.
Sebastián’s design reflects the atmosphere of devotion and pageantry associated with Andalusian Catholic culture during the postwar era, emphasizing the emotional intensity and dramatic light that characterize Seville’s Holy Week observances.

Original 1939 lithograph by Robert Falcucci, printed by Imprimerie d’Art et Tourisme for the French National Railways (SNCF). This striking design promotes travel to the Vallée de Chevreuse, a picturesque region just southwest of Paris celebrated for its rolling hills, historic villages, and natural beauty. Falcucci illustrates the Vaux de Cernay, with reference to the Château de Dampierre and the Abbey of Port-Royal, landmarks tied closely to the area’s cultural history. At the time, the Vallée was also known as a circuit for early automobile tours beginning at Saint-Rémy-lès-Chevreuse, making this a poster that intersects both tourism and motoring heritage.
The poster is mounted on linen and preserved in excellent condition, rated “A,” with fresh colors and strong impression. A fine example of Falcucci’s work for French railways, combining elegance of design with a timeless subject that remains a favorite excursion for Parisians.
