Nord-Express. 1927.
In this magnificent poster, Cassandre perfectly captures the two most important factors of early train travel: romance and speed. Our eyes are simultaneously fixed on the geometric swirl of the wheels and the seemingly endless distant horizon. The size and power of the engine are so brilliantly executed that we can almost feel that solid wall of hot air hitting us as it passes by.
