This striking Canadian Pacific Railway travel poster invites viewers to experience the dramatic beauty of the Canadian Rockies, highlighting Banff, Lake Louise, and Emerald Lake. A mounted rider pauses in the foreground as towering peaks, glaciers, and alpine forests rise behind, emphasizing scale, solitude, and wilderness.
Painted in a bold, expressive style, the artwork reflects early twentieth century railway advertising that promoted western Canada as a destination of grandeur and adventure.
