An original c.1960 travel lithograph for Trans World Airlines, celebrating Rome during aviation's golden age. Created by David Klein — the artist whose bold, saturated compositions defined an entire generation of American airline advertising — this piece captures the romance and glamour once attached to international air travel, when a destination poster was as much an invitation to dream as a marketing tool.
Klein's work for TWA remains highly sought after among mid-century poster collectors, prized for its confident use of color and its ability to distill a city's essence into a single striking image.
This piece is sold unframed, carefully rolled and shipped in a rigid tube to ensure it arrives in pristine condition.
