Edelweiss
Hundred years of vintage
posters from 1895 to 1995
After several editions dedicated to different themes
such as Ticinese Tourist Posters (2008), Swiss cable cars (2010) and Switzerland, the Land of Water,
this fourth edition of the poster exhibition on top of
Mount San Salvatore is centred on the Edelweiss, the
tiny candid and noble herbaceous perennial , with
its tufted aspect, which we often consider a simple
flower. Originating in the desert plateaus of Asia, its
scientific name is Leontopodium alpinum. Ever since
the 19th century, it has enjoyed great popularity so
much so that it has become one of the emblems of
the Switzerland, a symbol that has never declined and
of which this exhibition illustrates some of its importance. Its praise has been sung in music, in literature,
in films and its name has been bestowed on many
inns and hotels; at the tourist level, it remains one of
the main motives of attraction to visit our country, so
much so, that it has been adopted as the element that
characterizes the logo of Switzerland Tourism, that
circulates the image of our Alpine region throughout
the world. Flowers have often been made the symbol
of a region or nation - just think of the Florentine
Iris or the Dutch tulip - similarly our edelweiss, due
to its size, delicacy but also to its capacity to adapt
itself to extreme and bitter climates has become the
symbol of some of the most typical characteristics of
Switzerland and of its population. The posters exhibited here illustrate how widely it has been applied,
going from cultural proposals, to the promotion of
events, to tourism and even to industrial production
and services such as airlines, as an emblem of quality
guarantee.
