An Alpine destination for your travel collection

Celebrate an interest in Swiss mountain travel with this reproduction of Emil Cardinaux’s Zermatt poster (1908). Its connection to the Matterhorn gives it a particular sense of place, making it a thoughtful choice for a study, hallway or Alpine-themed gallery wall. Choose it as a reminder of a favourite journey or as part of a collection celebrating destinations you hope to explore.

About the poster

The 1908 date places this Swiss advertisement within the early history of modern travel-poster design. Cardinaux’s work connects a named destination with its mountain setting, offering an alternative to a photographic holiday view. For collectors, the poster provides a starting point for exploring how commercial art encouraged travel and how different places were presented to prospective visitors.

Create a personal mountain-travel corner

Imagine displaying the print near a bookshelf of walking guides, with warm wooden furniture, softly textured blankets and a treasured travel memento nearby. It can provide a year-round connection to the Alps, whether you enjoy mountain holidays, skiing or simply discovering places through their advertising history. The recorded pink, black and orange palette offers a starting point for coordinating accessories or companion prints in related tones.

A smaller format can join an established gallery arrangement, while a larger print gives the Swiss destination a more prominent place. Pairing it with another Swiss travel poster creates a geographical connection; adding Lake Louise and Tasmania broadens the display into a collection of mountain destinations. Consider your available wall space and surrounding furniture before choosing the size that suits your room.

Pair it with

Continue the Swiss mountain-travel theme with the Ste-Croix et Les Rasses ski poster (1930s). For a broader mountain gallery wall, add the Canadian Pacific Lake Louise poster and the Tasmania travel poster (1930s), whose “Switzerland of the South” slogan makes a fitting connection to Zermatt.
