TRAVEL POSTERS

Once used as advertising to entice travelers across distant lands, travel posters have now become sought after as pieces of art.  The travel poster took off in popularity in the 1920's, but declined by the 1960's when photographic images began to be used more than graphically-designed images.  Our students designed travel posters in the tradition and spirit of the great originals.  They attract the eye by highlighting points of interest, transportation, or activities available at the destination.  They also do one very important thing -- they are beautiful to look at!
