Additional Information
Created in 1927 by the Paris-based artist J. Daviel, this poster advertises the sea and rail route from Marseille to Alexandria. A towering pharaoh dominates the design, holding aloft a passenger train and an ocean liner above a schematic map of the sea crossing.
It served a combined ticket that carried passengers by luxury express train down to the southern port, then by fast steamship across to Egypt. A single fare linked the two legs, turning a long passage into one seamless holiday toward the ancient Nile.
Egypt drew Europeans in growing numbers through the 1920s, when the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb had fixed every eye on the pharaohs. Daviel wrapped that fascination into one figure, casting the god-king as both host and emblem of the voyage south.
Today this poster stands as a testament to the great age of Mediterranean travel and offers a window into the 1920s craze for all things Egyptian. Its bold central image and warm desert palette make it a prized feature for a study, library, or hall.
