Original poster designed by Martin Peikert to promote winter tourism in the Bernese Oberland in Switzerland: "Wengen, the home of good skiers".

The Bernese Oberland, the cradle of skiing, is the highest region in the Canton of Berne and home to the most spectacular World Cup races in Switzerland. It is known for its impressive panoramas, the countless peaks of its majestic mountains, unspoilt nature and more than 800 lakes.

Martin Peikert has designed numerous posters for Wengen, a famous resort in the Bernese Alps situated on a sunny terrace. His drawings, like this one, often depict a woman associated with one of the seasonal activities of the place.

Here, the outline of a female profile serves as a setting for a mountain landscape where skiers descend slopes at a great speed. In blue tones, the whole evokes the cold of winter.
