Additional Information
Created in 1921 by French artist Roger Broders for the Paris-Lyon-Méditerranée railway, this poster promotes Rome via the celebrated "Rome Express" luxury train. The composition masterfully frames the ancient Colosseum through the Arch of Titus, with a solitary figure and wandering goats evoking timeless Mediterranean serenity.
The Rome Express, inaugurated in December 1883, was among Europe's most prestigious luxury rail services connecting Paris to Rome. The train carried affluent travelers from Calais through the Alpine Fréjus tunnel to Turin and Genoa before reaching the Eternal City, becoming a symbol of continental elegance.
Broders' characteristic technique of using architectural foregrounds to frame distant landmarks is on full display here. The Arch of Titus, erected around 82 AD by Emperor Domitian to honor his brother's victory in Jerusalem, creates a dramatic portal through which the iconic Colosseum — completed in 80 AD — rises majestically.
This remarkable poster provides a vivid window into the golden age of European luxury rail travel, when the journey itself rivaled the destination in grandeur and sophistication. A splendid addition to any collection celebrating early twentieth-century graphic design, Italian heritage, and the romance of continental train travel.
