Nantes Quai de la Fosse with tall ships poster

Nantes poster, the tall ships of the Quai de la Fosse

Along the Quai de la Fosse, in Nantes, tall sailing ships are moored on the Loire. Behind them stand the shipowners’ mansions with their wrought iron balconies, and strollers wander along the cobblestones of the quay. This Nantes poster recalls the city’s maritime past, in a vertical composition where the soaring masts echo the tall facades. Pale stone, reflections on the Loire and rigging create an elegant scene. The title “NANTES” is printed on the poster.

Nantes and the Loire for an office or entryway

It finds its place in an entryway, an office, a living room or a library. Its stone and blue tones pair well with dark wood, wrought iron, brass and navy tones. Tall and slim, it fits easily between 2 windows. For a full wall, combine it with other posters of harbors or the Atlantic coast. It is a meaningful gift for a Nantes native living elsewhere, a tall ship enthusiast, a student leaving the city or a maritime history buff.
