Dunkerque. 1929. Roger Broders.24 ¾ x 39 1/8 in./62.7 x 99.2 cmThe rarest of all Broders posters, it’s also the only image Broders created for the Chemin de Fer du Nord – though the railroad is nowhere to be seen. Instead, he gives us the view from an elegant couple’s yacht, pulling out of the harbor. The contrast between the modern (both people and ships) and the medieval (the spire of the Old Town Hall, the little skiff at right) makes Dunkirk all the more interesting and mysterious.Available at auction February 25, 2018. -- source link
