EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print captures the essence of wintersport in Graubunden, Switzerland, back in 1906. The colour lithograph by Walter Koch showcases a picturesque alpine landscape with snow-covered mountains as its backdrop. In this vintage poster, a lone male skier gracefully glides down the slopes, embodying the thrill and excitement of winter sports. The advertisement-like composition exudes an air of holiday adventure and invites viewers to explore this enchanting destination. With its bold graphics and text, the poster serves as both a promotional tool for winter resorts and a piece of sports memorabilia from that era. The light blue sky contrasts beautifully with the pristine white snow, creating a visually stunning scene that transports us to another time. The skillful use of lithography brings out every detail in this mountainous terrain while maintaining an overall sense of tranquility. Walter Koch's artistic prowess shines through his portrayal of this solitary skier against the majestic Swiss Alps. His mastery lies not only in capturing the physicality of skiing but also in evoking emotions associated with vacationing and travelling during that period. This remarkable print is now part of a private collection but remains timeless in its ability to transport us to an era where wintersport was celebrated amidst breathtaking natural beauty.
