The appeal of California posters

Contrary to what many people believe, California is not just glitz and glamour, it actually has a lot of interesting history. It joined the United States with the signing of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, which ended the Mexican- American War, in 1848, with the U.S. paying Mexico $15 million for war damages. In turn, Mexico ceded nearly half of its territory, including California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas and parts of Colorado, Nevada, and Utah. Although originally known as the Grizzly Bear State, it is now known as the Golden State. You will see and feel why when you put up California posters, as these truly are gold medalists when it comes to equipping your interiors with beauty, style and texture. The other wonderful thing about California posters is that we have added two smaller subcategories, Los Angeles and San Francisco, to make your selection process more cohesive and streamlined.

The City of Angels

Those unfamiliar with Los Angeles sometimes assume it is permanently sunny and full of celebrities. The truth, however, is far more nuanced as the weather can vary, the majority of the people are working-class folks and there is more amazing art and sights than a visitor could possibly cram into one trip. California posters will certainly show this side of Los Angeles in unique designs, vibrant colours and a variety of themes. While other iconic American cities such as New York are tall, Los Angeles is wide. Santa Monica and Venice Beach, for example, are popular with tourists but are a considerable drive away. California posters like "Lifeguard in Santa Monica, Los Angeles" do show how beautiful these spots can be, no matter the distance. With items such as these, you can have those famous beach vibes in your interior all year through.

Northern California posters

When talking about San Francisco, you cannot leave out its most defining sight, the Golden Gate Bridge. In the late 19th century, San Francisco was one of the fastest developing cities in the United States, but it hit a major speed bump as it started to develop into a major hub that was in need of quick and reliable transportation, especially after the development of the affordable car in the early 20th century. When the city stagnated and stopped growing, locals called for a bridge to be constructed so that people could travel more easily and quickly. With California posters that feature San Francisco, you do not only have a beautiful embellishment for your walls, but also an important and meaningful structure in your interiors. California posters will up the visual weight while also providing historical context and a superb piece of Americana. Symbolic of American ingenuity and innovation, California posters such as "Golden Gate - Sepia" bring a great deal of character and optic interest.
