The Story Behind
The Roman Forum, often called “The Heart of Rome,” was once the vibrant center of ancient public life—hosting speeches, trials, and grand processions. This iconic image, originally created by French artist Geo Dorival in the early 20th century, celebrates the timeless beauty of Rome bathed in the warm light of golden hour.
Commissioned by PLM Railways, the poster invited travelers to explore Rome via the scenic Mount Cenis route through the French Alps—a journey that connected the romance of travel with the magic of discovery.
Our reproduction honors Dorival’s masterful blend of soft tones and nostalgic charm, bringing the spirit of vintage European travel posters into your home with museum-quality detail.
