Item Overview

Description

Calais-Lucerne-Interlaken-Engadine Express. 1899.The name of the summer service being offered by the Wagons-Lits rail company is almost as long as the deluxe train ride being advertised in this Ochoa promotion. Granted, it's nice to know how-and how stylishly-one is going to arrive at one's intended destination. However, all the textual specificity in the world doesn't really hold a candle to Ochoa's painterly, balustrade view of Lake Lucerne, which truly convinces the viewer that some quiet time away might just be the best idea in the world.
