Athens – Vintage Travel Poster
The Parthenon and Athens rendered in the style of a mid-century travel poster for Greece.
Description
The Parthenon anchors this travel poster, handled in the flat color and bold typography of mid-century design. Athens and Greece are simplified into their iconic landmark rather than rendered with fine detail, which is exactly what gives the style its graphic strength.
Stair walls and hallways take posters like this well, and so does a study, entryway, or mudroom. It gains a lot from hanging alongside other travel posters from different countries and eras.
Travelers who have been to Athens, Greece enthusiasts, and history buffs are the audience. It works as a memento after a trip, or as the start of a travel-poster wall someone will keep adding to over time.
