Story

Two figures dressed in period clothing stand beneath a red umbrella, set against a backdrop of mountains and clustered buildings rendered in warm and cool colors. The scene promotes the Auvergne railway line run by the Compagnie P.-L.-M. This color lithograph dates from 1892 and appeared in Les Maîtres de l'affiche. Its creator, Jules Chéret (1836–1932), worked within the Art Nouveau movement in France.
