Vintage ski posters are the rare seasonal art that goes up in September and stays until March. Full disclosure: the first prints this gallery ever sold were ski posters — so this guide is personal.

The chalet wall — even without a chalet
You do not need wood panelling to earn a ski wall, but if you have any warm wood, leather or plaid in the room, three swirling piste posters will make it look intentional. Our trio — Ski Nº16 in navy, the red Ski piste print and the Ski Jump in blue — share one painterly language: cream brushstroke pistes winding around tiny skiers. Hang all three at 50×70 in oak frames, in a row, centres at eye level.
The mudroom version: two pistes, a bench, and gloves that mean it.
Three rooms that want winter
The den or study takes the full chalet treatment — three posters over leather and plaid. The hallway is where ski posters work hardest: a pair above the coat bench turns leaving the house into a small ceremony. The home office prefers the quiet end of the collection — the minimalist Downhill pair in thin black frames reads as calm slalom lines until you look closer.
The quiet version: minimalist downhill prints for a focused office.
Why September is the moment
Interest in ski decor climbs from early autumn and peaks around the holidays — ski posters are bought as trip souvenirs before the trip, as gifts for people whose winters revolve around a mountain, and as the fastest way to make a rented flat feel like après-ski. Buying in September means the wall is done before the first snow report. The button above opens the chalet trio on a real-scale wall in our Wall Designer; the ski & winter sports collection has snowboards and slalom lines too.

Frequently asked questions
When should I hang ski posters — are they only for winter?
Ski posters read as vintage travel art, not holiday decor, so most people keep them up year-round. Interest peaks from September to January, which makes early autumn the natural moment to hang them — the wall is ready before the season starts.
What sizes do these prints come in?
Every design comes in 12 sizes, from A4 up to 70×100 cm, in both centimetre and inch formats — and all designs share the same size system, so any combination hangs together as a coherent set.

Each order is printed at the studio closest to you — in the EU, the UK, the USA, Canada or Australia — on 200 gsm archival matte paper. Production typically takes 2–5 business days, and all orders come with 30-day returns.
