What it is
An 1890 poster for the flower festival at Luchon, the spa town that called itself queen of the Pyrenees. Affiches Camis printed it in Paris.
Why it matters
Spa towns ran festivals to fill the season, and Luchon advertised its own in Paris, where its visitors lived.
What to notice
The sheet is wide, unlike the upright railway bills of the day.
A mountain town dressed in flowers for one week.
