Vintage Shanghai Posters – A Retro City Portrait

These vintage shanghai posters offer a retro-style portrait of the city as it looks today. The illustration mixes a modern subject with an old-fashioned graphic approach, which gives it a distinctive charm. It is a handsome print for anyone who loves city skylines.

This print gives a bustling modern city the soft focus of a vintage illustration. The contrast between a contemporary skyline and an old-fashioned graphic touch is what makes it so appealing. It feels thoughtful, urban and a little dreamy. Looking at it, you can imagine lights, towers and busy streets seen from a quiet distance.

Styling

It works nicely over a bedside, above a desk or over a sofa in a living room with calm walls. Add a few simple objects, such as a slim lamp, a ceramic vase and a stack of books, to keep the look uncluttered. The poster is delivered without a frame, so a thin white or pale oak frame will keep things light. If you like city themes, hang it next to other skyline prints in matching frames.
