This vintage poster is an emblematic piece of the winter tourism promotion campaign for the canton of Valais (Switzerland) in the 1950s. It belongs to the production of ski posters designed to attract holidaymakers to Swiss alpine destinations. The main character, an elegant fox wearing a red scarf and pink skis, embodies the idea of being “clever”: a visual wink at choosing Valais for one’s winter holidays.
