This poster by Otto Baumberger shows the arrival of a Lake Zurich steamboat at Bürkliplatz, with its fashionable passengers walking out onto the quay and the snow-covered Glarus Alps in the background.
This original poster from the golden age of Swiss poster advertising was lithographed in 1916 at Wolfensberger.
