Description

A German travel poster promoting the Predigtstuhlbahn and Berghotel Predigtstuhl above Bad Reichenhall. The cable-car station and mountain hotel stand on a snowy precipice beneath blue Alpine peaks, with a small red flag punctuating the cool winter palette.

The text advertises a snow-reliable winter-sports destination offering sunshine, skiing and a ski lift, together with practical rail and road connections from Bad Reichenhall, Salzburg and Berchtesgaden. Crisp modern typography and a painterly mountain view capture the expansion of Alpine tourism during the interwar period.
