Carteles, publicidad y territorio: la creación de la identidad turística en españa (1929-1936)

Abstract

Since its foundation in 1928, the Patronato Nacional de Turimo assumed, as one of its essential duties, the touristic promotion of Spain. For that, among other activities, they edited several posters in different languages in which, not only the richness of our country was issued, but a whole conception of Spain that could awake interest of potential visitors, that is to say, a unique and authentic touristic identity of Spain. This article has the objective of analyzing the advertising and geographical perspective of the group of posters that came to us and establishing the key aspects of that promotion of our country.
