Travel poster details

This is an original vintage travel poster design by contemporary artist Henry Rivers. Inspired by vintage travel advertising of the 20th century, Henry illustrates the world’s best-loved places with cool colours, playful details and a minimalist style.

This vintage travel poster of Chicago, Illinois depicts a hot day on the Lakeside beach. There is a volley ball match underway, cyclists on the move, swimmers in the lake, sunbathers soaking up the sun, and a lifeguard on duty from his tower. In the background are architectural landmarks of Chicago including the Hancock Building and the Palmolive. If you look closey the record-breakingly tall Sears tower can be made out through the mist. The text reads Visit Chicago.
