About The Poster: This wonderful poster was purchased in Brussels and was produced by a very well-known Belgian painter and poster artist known as Herman Verbaere.
About the Artist: Herman VERBAERE was born in Wetteren, the son of a printer. He was educated at the Academy in Wetteren and then in Ghent, where he won the Grand Prix for Drawing a Live Model, in 1933. At the World Exhibition in Paris in 1937, he was awarded for his posters of Flemish landscapes. He was one of the leading Belgian designers of tourist posters.
From 1946 on, the NMBS/SNCB published landscape posters in various languages. In the layout of the posters, text and images were separated. A map of the network with the depicted city or region was printed at the bottom.
Poster is in very good condition with some minor creasing (please see photos) and is ready to frame.
