What it is
A 1906 P.L.M. railway poster of the lake at Aix-les-Bains in Savoie.
Why it matters
François Cachoud (1866-1943) was a Savoyard painter, known for night scenes, and the railway hired him to paint his own country. Imprimerie Chaix printed it.
What to notice
The lake fills the sheet and the railway is reduced to its initials.
A spa town sold by its water and its light.
