This striking mid-century travel poster celebrates the cultural richness of Mexico through the unmistakable art of Diego Rivera, one of the most influential muralists of the 20th century. Produced around 1955 for the Mexican National Tourism Council, the poster features a vivid detail from Rivera’s monumental murals at the National Palace in Mexico City.
Rivera’s artwork captures the spirit and heritage of pre-Hispanic civilizations, presenting a scene teeming with ceremonial life, traditional dress, and symbolic motifs. The composition is both educational and evocative, reflecting Rivera’s unique synthesis of history and modern Mexican identity.
Set against a bold red panel and clean modern typography, the word “MEXICO” anchors the piece, emphasizing national pride and inviting international travelers to discover its deep cultural roots. This poster is not only a promotional piece but also a work of art in itself—a vibrant testament to Mexico’s visual and historical grandeur.
Highly collectible, it embodies the golden era of cultural tourism and Rivera’s enduring legacy as a political and artistic icon.
