Stand at the rocky shoreline of Wastwater to take in the most dramatic skyline in the Lake District. Here, the still lake mirrors imposing mountain architecture: the pyramid of Yewbarrow on the left, Great Gable centred at the valley head, and the massive Scafells rising to the right.

This Swiss Modernist treatment strips the valley back to its essential geometry. The fells are reduced to interlocking triangles of crisp greyscale and solid black, creating a sharp reflection in the water. A single red sun breaks the monochrome palette, offering bold, uncompromising shapes that deliver immediate graphic impact from across a room.

Striking and architectural, this framed, ready-to-hang poster commands attention on a stairwell or above a modern desk. A black frame perfectly anchors the heavy geometric shadows of the design. Belonging to a wider series, it looks exceptional as a standalone statement or grouped with other Lakeland places along a hallway.

Sizes

30 × 40 cm — 12 × 16 in

45 × 60 cm — 18 × 24 in

50 × 70 cm — 20 × 28 in

Each size is the printed poster itself; the 20 mm moulding sits outside it. There is no mount — the print runs to the frame, so the whole design is on show.

Paper, frame and glazing

Printed on 200 gsm enhanced matte fine-art paper, chosen for flat colour: no gloss, no reflections, and ink that sits in the sheet rather than on it.

Framed in a 20 mm wide, 24 mm deep solid wood moulding — black, white or natural oak.

Glazed with shatterproof acrylic rather than glass, so a large poster arrives intact.

MDF backing board with hanging fixtures already fitted.

Swiss Modernist Lake District travel poster

The Swiss Modernist series

Mid-century Swiss reduction — a fell in five shapes and a single red rule

The severest treatment we make. A fell reduced to five flat shapes, acres of quiet ground and a single accent, in the manner of the Swiss tourism posters of the 1960s. It suits a modern room and a plain wall.
