The Story Behind the Print

This vintage Calcutta travel poster captures the golden age of destination marketing, when exotic cities were presented through a lens of architectural grandeur and colonial romanticism. Created during the height of international travel promotion in the early-to-mid 20th century, this piece showcases the city's most iconic landmarks rendered in the bold, stylized aesthetic that defined travel advertising of the era.

The poster reflects a fascinating moment in history when steamship companies and railway lines commissioned artists to create alluring visions of distant destinations. Calcutta, as the former capital of British India and a major commercial hub, was frequently featured in such promotional materials aimed at European and American travelers seeking adventure in the exotic East.

Reproduced on 325gsm museum-grade archival matte paper using giclée printing with archival inks, ensuring gallery-quality results that will maintain their vibrancy for generations.

Colors may vary slightly between screens and the finished piece — the print will always be richer.

About the Frame

Framed pieces are built to order in solid wood with a 1.125 inch face, glazed in crystal-clear acrylic, and finished with a kraft paper dust cover and hanging wire. Your print is dry mounted so it stays perfectly flat for decades. Each framed piece arrives ready to hang.

The frame adds roughly 1.75 inches to each side of the print size you select. Framed orders are custom made and ship within 7 to 10 business days, free in the U.S. See our shipping and return policies for framed piece details.
