Gstaad: ‘Palace Hotel – Night’

Palacial: powerfully expressive view of the widely fashionable Palace Hotel between sunset and sunrise achieves telling contrast with the majestic hotel depicted by day. Switzerland is much more than the land of chocolate, watch-making and numbered accounts and the Swiss gave special prominence to the style of representation known as display art. A generation of gifted artists and illustrators found complete expression in the long, serrated chain of the Alps, a dominant characteristic of a landscape sculpted by the elements, and laid the foundations for the school of Alpine poster design.
