Cliffside Town

Cliffside Town is among the most charming works in Lucien Aubry's travel suite. A town of stacked pastel houses tumbles down a steep cliff to a small harbour on a turquoise sea, terraced gardens above and white sailboats below, all beneath a large soft sun. Aubry composes entirely in outline-free planes of terracotta, cream, coral and teal, layering them to build the vertiginous drop, then lays a fine paper grain over the image for the warmth of a vintage poster. Picturesque, sun-warmed and full of Mediterranean charm, it distils the romance of a clifftop village into elegant flat design.

An original oil painting on canvas by Lucien Aubry, painted to order — never a reproduction. Vintage flat-vector travel posters — the world's great cities and coasts in bold geometric colour, glowing suns and warm mid-century palettes with a soft paper grain.
