Original poster: Orient Express, Venice Simplon dining car by Fix-Masseau.
Fix-Masseau’s career as an artist began in the 1930s, and he maintained his signature deco style throughout its duration. This elegant poster advertises the VSOE train line with the spotlight on the availability of fine dining. The 1920s and 1930s were the heyday of the legendary train - elaborate meals, decadent company, and fine wines characterized this era of rail travel. Royalty, celebrities, courtesans, and spies intermingled as they traveled in opulence throughout Europe.
