GEORGES DORIVAL (1879-1968) ROME.
42 1/2x30 3/4 inches. Robaudy, Cannes.
Condition B+: repaired tears and creases in margins and image.
The 13 km-long, Alpine tunnel through Mount Cenis was completed in 1871, linking France's department of La Savoie with Italy's province of Turin. To encourage travellers on what was now a much shorter trip, the French Railway PLM used this evocatively colored image of Roman ruins to lure passengers to the Italian capital. Voyage p. 139.
