Continua a leggereCreated by Lith. Van Geleyn in 1863, Bains de mer et de Seine, hydrothérapie & gymnase à la frégate La Ville de Paris advertises an unusually ambitious leisure establishment aboard the frigate La Ville de Paris. The vessel occupies the centre of a tall, exuberant composition, its crowded rigging and festive flags surrounded by emphatic lettering in red, blue and warm orange. Ship and headline compete energetically for attention: the former promises maritime novelty, while the latter announces bathing, hydrotherapy and exercise with the confidence of a public spectacle.
The poster belongs to a period in which bathing and organised physical activity were increasingly promoted as fashionable routes to health. Hydrotherapy could be presented as both treatment and recreation, while establishments devoted to exercise anticipated a broader modern culture of fitness. Here, the frigate is marketed not simply as transport but as a destination in its own right—part gymnasium, part therapeutic retreat and part pleasure resort. The breadth of its advertised amenities suggests an enterprise designed to occupy the visitor for an entire outing, combining bodily improvement with dining and sociability.
A closer look
At the top, the large words “Bains de Mer et de Seine” establish an immediate graphic hierarchy. Their broad, assertive forms stand out against a pale beige ground, with strong blue and red providing the principal contrast. “Hydrothérapie & Gymnase” is also given prominent treatment, its decorative presentation turning the services themselves into visual attractions. Smaller lines of type accumulate below and around these declarations, giving the poster the information-rich character of nineteenth-century commercial advertising.
The frigate forms the pictorial heart of the design. Its hull is modelled with subtle changes of tone, while the masts rise into a delicate network of spars and rigging. These fine lines provide a striking counterpoint to the flat colour and heavy typography elsewhere. Flags punctuate the upper silhouette, introducing repeated flashes of colour and lending the ship a ceremonial air. Smaller craft appear on the water towards the upper right, while distant buildings and natural forms broaden the scene beyond the vessel itself.
Towards the lower edge, the poster shifts from grand announcement to practical enticement. Among the listed amenities are a buffet, restaurant and oyster park, details that reveal how thoroughly leisure and refreshment were integrated with the language of health. A band of oceanic blue gives weight to the base of the composition, and a narrow red border holds together the unusually dense arrangement of text and illustration. Look closely, too, at the patterned flags and the strict alignment of the smaller notices: beneath the apparent bustle lies a carefully organised design.
Context and significance
Mid-nineteenth-century posters often had to communicate at several distances. From afar, bold colour and oversized lettering caught the eye; at closer range, detailed imagery and plentiful text supplied the particulars. Van Geleyn’s design performs both tasks with particular liveliness. Its central ship offers an instantly legible emblem of travel and novelty, while the surrounding typography converts a complex programme of bathing, exercise and hospitality into a clear commercial proposition.
The result is also a revealing document of changing leisure culture. La Ville de Paris is presented as a self-contained world in which medicine, recreation and consumption meet on the water. That mixture gives the poster its distinctive character: behind its playful flags and bright colour lies a remarkably modern idea of wellness as an experience to be advertised, packaged and enjoyed.
Choosing the right size and finish
Artwork can feel intimate at smaller sizes and dramatically more architectural at larger ones. Use the room preview, model image and size guide to see how the proportions and scale will work in your space.
If you need an exact size, specialist framing or help planning a larger display, ask our workshop for advice.
The model in the listing images is holding the 20x36in (50x90cm) version of this art print.
Where personalisation is available, you can add a short title or dedication, or one considered visual detail. See examples of personalised artwork.
Choose Original to retain the colour and character of the source artwork, or Aged for a warmer, more antique appearance. See examples of our Aged artwork.
Every piece is produced to archival standards using fade-resistant pigment inks on acid-free matte art paper. Choose an art print, framed art print or framed canvas using the finish options above.
Framed art prints use crystal-clear optical acrylic for excellent clarity, lower weight and safer delivery than glass. Each piece arrives professionally framed and ready to hang.
Selected artworks can be produced at statement sizes up to 3 metres (10ft). Custom sizing and specialist framing are also available. If the exact option you need is not listed, contact our workshop.
This artwork is also available as a float framed canvas, sometimes known as a shadow gap framed canvas or canvas floater. The work is printed on artist's cotton canvas and then stretched over a handmade box frame. We then "float" the canvas inside a wooden frame, which is available in a range of colours (black, dark brown, oak, antique gold and white). This is a wonderful way to present an art print without glazing in front. See some examples of float framed canvas art and explore the differences between my different finishes.

Most orders are made locally and delivered in around 2–3 working days, depending on the product, size and destination.
We print and frame maps and artwork in 24 countries around the world, so your order is usually made close to you or your recipient. That means faster delivery, less time in transit, and no customs or import duty surprises.
Personalised and customised pieces usually take an extra 1–2 working days, because we prepare your design and send it to you for approval before printing.
Very large framed orders can take a little longer, as they need extra care in production and delivery.
Every order is carefully packaged: unframed prints are sent in a strong protective tube, while framed pieces are securely packed with protective materials around the frame.
If you need your order by a particular date, please contact us before ordering. We’ll check the best production route and delivery option for your location.

Our standard frame is a gallery-style black ash hardwood frame, with a simple, modern look. It is approximately 20mm (0.8in) wide. You can also view some lovely customer photos of framed maps and art.
We use super-clear acrylic glazing, also known as Perspex or Acrylite, instead of traditional glass. It is lighter, safer, and has lower reflectivity, giving the artwork a clearer, cleaner appearance.
Six standard frame colours are available at no extra cost: black, dark brown, dark grey, oak, white, and antique gold. Custom framing and mounting/matting is also available for customers looking for something more specific.
Most maps, art prints, and illustrations are also available as a framed canvas. We use matte cotton canvas, stretch it over a sustainably sourced wooden box frame, and then float the piece within a wooden outer frame. The finished result is beautifully presented, with no glazing between you and the artwork.
All frames are supplied ready to hang, with either string or brackets fitted to the back. Very large frames will include heavy-duty hanging plates and/or a mounting baton. If you have any questions, please get in touch.
We can also supply old maps and artwork on canvas, foam board, cotton rag, and other materials.
If you would prefer to frame your map or artwork yourself, please read our size guide before ordering.

Ogni stampa artistica restaurata inizia dall’opera originale dell’artista—mai da una sostituzione generata dall’IA.
Il nostro studio di Londra lavora a partire da materiali di origine accuratamente selezionati da musei, biblioteche, archivi e collezioni private. Restauriamo i danni dovuti all’età, i colori sbiaditi e le imperfezioni di riproduzione, preservando al contempo la composizione, il tratto del pennello, il segno, la texture e il carattere d’epoca dell’artista.
Non utilizziamo l’IA generativa per ridisegnare, reinterpretare o inventare l’opera. Il restauro digitale viene impiegato solo per recuperare e riprodurre l’opera originale nel modo più fedele possibile.
Una volta restaurata, l’opera master viene preparata per il formato e la finitura da te scelti. Il tuo pezzo viene quindi stampato e, se selezionato, incorniciato vicino alla destinazione di consegna.
Le nostre stampe artistiche giclée utilizzano carta opaca archivistica senza acidi da 200 g/m² e inchiostri pigmentati resistenti allo sbiadimento, per una finitura ricca e di qualità museale. Le stampe artistiche incorniciate utilizzano acrilico ottico cristallino e arrivano pronte da appendere.
Sono disponibili anche tele incorniciate ed edizioni speciali su cotone-rag. Scopri di più sui nostri materiali e finiture.
Restauriamo e produciamo mappe e stampe d’arte dal 1984, e garantiamo personalmente ogni pezzo.
Ogni ordine è coperto dalla nostra garanzia di 10 anni e dalla garanzia di consegna senza danni. Se il vostro pezzo arriva danneggiato, lo sostituiremo o lo rifaremo gratuitamente. Se qualsiasi altro aspetto non fosse conforme, contattate il nostro team di laboratorio e provvederemo tempestivamente a risolvere il problema.
Per tutti i dettagli, consultate la nostra politica su resi e rimborsi.
