A striking and beautiful 1934 travel poster advertising "SELU", the Semaine De LumièRe (week of light) festival on Lake Lugano, 9-21 May 1934, lithograph on paper by Bolt, depicting a pink mountain, with yellow light at the Summit, against a black background with the words SELU in innovative "projected light" typeface above it and the lights of the city reflected on the lake below. Printed in Lugano.
We think this is a rare poster because we have not been able to find another example anywhere. The program for this festival resides in the Swiss Cantonal Archives of Vaud. In very good condition, but would benefit from a new frame. (It is shown in an old white painted wood frame with plexi over it for protection).
