Skiers appear as stark silhouettes in the foreground, set against black mountain shapes and a hotel reduced to a simple graphic outline.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMont-Genèvre claimed the first ski resort in France, open since 1907 on a lofty pass in the Cottian Alps. Its slopes offered six months of snow, and the design sold that pledge with pure, saturated color and clean, cutout shapes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe sport was booming between the wars as railways ran snow trains up to the Alps and the middle class took to skiing. Illustrators answered with a lean, geometric visual style, and Brusset's silhouettes rank among the sharpest statements of the era.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eToday this poster stands as a testament to the 1930s vogue for the ski holiday and offers a window into a stripped-down poster style that still feels current. Its hard contrasts and wintry blues make it a prized fixture for a study, den, or hall.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Historic Prints","offers":[{"title":"8x12 Inch","offer_id":68236990152893,"sku":"ENTP0119_0812P","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11x17 Inch","offer_id":68236990185661,"sku":"ENTP0119_1117P","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16x24 Inch","offer_id":68236990218429,"sku":"ENTP0119_1624P","price":64.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0504\/5459\/3725\/files\/1AfFIyoMNTf0FrvmOwel9ZCo699L-jxBz_w1000.jpg?v=1794379033","url":"https:\/\/historicprints.com\/products\/1935-montgenevre-french-alps-ski-travel-poster","provider":"Historic Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
