Ski and travel posters from an era of glamorous jet-setters

Ever-popular and collectible vintage ski posters will come up at Christie’s Interiors auction at South Kensington in London next Wednesday.

The sale will include around 100 posters by the most sought after artists depicting the most iconic ski resorts in an era of glamour.

The spectacular ski scenery of Switzerland, Norway, Germany, and the US will feature. A poster designed by Martin Peikert advertising the Swiss resort of Les Diablerets is typical of his bold style and features a couple ascending the mountain on a ski lift.
