See America Blue Cave Travel Bureau Propaganda Print
£18.00 - £32.00
The "See America" poster featuring a man and a woman inside a cave using blue colors is a piece of propaganda art created by the United States Travel Bureau in the 1930s. The poster was designed by artist David Stone Martin, who was known for his contributions to the field of graphic design and his use of simple, stylized imagery.
The poster depicts a man and a woman standing inside a cave, with the words "See America" written above them. The image is rendered in a bold, graphic style that is typical of Art Deco design, with flat, geometric shapes and a limited color palette of blue and white. The man and woman are shown in profile, their bodies and features simplified and stylized to create a sense of unity and harmony between the two figures.
The "See America" poster was produced during a time when the United States was struggling to recover from the economic hardships of the Great Depression. The Travel Bureau, a government agency that promoted domestic tourism, commissioned the poster as part of a campaign to encourage Americans to travel within their own country and explore the natural beauty of the land. The poster was meant to evoke a sense of national pride and to remind Americans of the rich history and cultural heritage of their country.
In terms of style, the "See America" poster is an example of Art Deco design, a style that emerged in the 1920s and became popular in the 1930s. Art Deco was characterized by its use of bold, geometric shapes and bright, vibrant colors, and was often used in propaganda art and commercial design. The "See America" poster reflects these characteristics, with its flat, stylized forms and limited color palette creating a sense of simplicity and modernity.
