Visit Menton by Terechkovitch

A burst of Riviera joy from the brush of Russian-French artist Constantin Terechkovitch, this original 1962 lithograph was created to promote the sun-drenched French coastal town of Menton. Known for its lush gardens and endless light, Menton is rendered here as a dreamscape of citrus, color, and calm. The poster’s tagline, Mer, Monts et Merveille (Sea, Mountains, and Marvels), sums it up perfectly. Terechkovitch, a member of the School of Paris and contemporary of artists like Chagall and Kisling, was celebrated for his lyrical palette and fluid compositions. This piece glows with painterly spontaneity: lemons and figs hang overhead like ornaments, the sea glimmers in layered hues of blue, and a barefoot woman in a ruffled dress lounges on a striped terrace, lost in thought. The view behind her, Menton's Old Town, shimmers like a mosaic of pastel rooftops nestled between the sea and the Alps. Printed by Mourlot in Paris, this lithograph embodies the postwar revival of French travel poster art. It’s not just a depiction, but a mood: vibrant, carefree, and infused with light.
