Step back in time with this French Wagons-Lits poster from the 1920s, advertising the luxurious sleeper train service to Switzerland, Italy, and the Cote d'Azur. The golden age of rail travel is brought to life in this evocative image, showcasing the comfort and elegance of second-class accommodations aboard the Wagon-Lits trains. The interior of the cabin is a delightful blend of Art Deco design and practical functionality. Wooden finishes in rich, warm tones create a sense of comfort and sophistication, while the beds, complete with crisp linens and plush pillows, promise a restful night's sleep during your overnight journey.
