A color poster promoting Steiermark, the Austrian state known in English as Styria, its title pairing that name with "Wagula." Printed in Graz by Alfred Wall sometime between 1930 and 1940, it reflects a decade when Austrian tourist promoters were working to draw skiers and holiday visitors to the Alps. Mountains and snow dominate the scene, pointing to the winter sports that were growing in popularity across the region. Like much interwar travel advertising, it treats winter as a reason to travel rather than a season to endure.
