Description:
Canadian Pacific Travel
Artist : Anonymous
The first known CPR poster was printed in 1883. Since then, thousands of brochures, posters, menus, advertisements and other items have been created to promote travel, immigration and settlement, war efforts, freight traffic and other services provided by the company. In early years, CPR sponsored artists - both well-known and emerging talent - by providing railway passes to take them to scenic locations along the line, and CPR had the option to purchase works produced from these trips. In later years, CPR commissioned artists and even employed full-time graphic artists in the company's studio in Montreal. This photo montage poster advertises the international nature of CP cruises to exotic locales. The limited color palette is used to its best advantage and creates an interesting use of perspective.
