Hanko-Hangö Seaside Resort

Oh, the glamor! This is exactly what Finland and Hanko (Hangö in Swedish) is all about – every day! Unfortunately the artist remains unknown. We only know it was created by the advertising agency Ilmo (no longer in business). But the poster deserves r-e-s-p-e-c-t! It communicates such a trendy image of Hanko that the French Riviera must have had a hard time to compete with. And no doubt has the artist been inspired by the French poster artists.

This poster was actually re-used by the City of Hanko (Hangö) in the 2010s in the marketing of this beautiful city. Come to Finland was naturally enough the provider.
