Dublin: Ireland – The Fair City – Vintage Travel Poster

A joyful, timeless ode to Dublin in classic mid-century travel-poster style. This vibrant A3 artwork centres on the graceful, iconic Ha'penny Bridge arching over the River Liffey, its elegant wrought-iron curves and white railings gleaming against the deep teal-green water. Behind the bridge rises the warm terracotta and cream Georgian warehouses and tenements of the south quays, crowned by the unmistakable tall chimney of the Guinness Brewery, gently smoking against a soft, golden sky.

The border bursts with lucky shamrocks, golden harps and Celtic-inspired motifs in rich emerald green and warm gold, framing the scene like a welcoming Celtic knot. A classic red double-decker bus crosses the bridge in the distance, adding that unmistakable Dublin bustle and charm.

The colour palette is perfectly nostalgic: deep teal-greens for the river and sky, warm ochres and terracottas for the buildings, crisp whites and golds for highlights, all softened by subtle aged-paper distressing that gives it authentic 1950s–1960s travel-poster character. Bold, elegant lettering at the top proclaims “DUBLIN” in deep navy with warm gold outlines, while below the inviting tagline reads “IRELAND – THE FAIR CITY”.

Printed on premium 200gsm matte art paper (A3 – 297 × 420 mm), the colours are richly saturated yet beautifully vintage, with a luxurious velvet matte finish that eliminates glare and lends the print a high-quality, collectible feel – as though it were freshly discovered in an old Aer Lingus or Irish tourism archive.

Perfect for Dubliners proud of their city, Ireland lovers, Guinness fans, lovers of literature and live music, or anyone who feels the pull of cobbled streets, friendly pubs, river walks and good craic. Hang it in your kitchen, hallway, living room, office or pub snug and let it remind you every day: Dublin – ancient, alive, endlessly welcoming, and always fair. Sláinte!
