A sleek TGV train cuts through Burgundy's wine country in bold strokes of yellow, orange and burgundy. Bernard Villemot for Conseil R�gional de Bourgogne, 1984.

Villemot transforms France's newest high-speed rail line into a celebration of regional pride. The geometric patterned banners frame the central landscape like traditional heraldic standards, while the train itself becomes a silver arrow connecting past and future. This was commissioned as Burgundy positioned itself for the TGV era.

The composition balances modernist simplification with Burgundy's rich visual heritage. Villemot's signature style, clean shapes, saturated colour, depicts both the speed of progress and the enduring character of the wine region.

Restored from archival source as a fine art archival print.
