Santa Justa Elevator Poster Lisbon - Viaggio artistico™ Collection by Alecse

Vintage inspired Lisbon travel poster featuring the iconic Santa Justa Elevator rising above the streets of the Baixa district, created by French travel poster artist Alecse.

Rather than portraying the Santa Justa Elevator as an isolated architectural landmark, Alecse places it at the end of a lively Lisbon street. Tall façades frame the composition on both sides, naturally drawing the eye towards the iron tower in the distance. In the foreground, a solitary figure seen from behind stands facing the monument, giving the scene its scale and placing the viewer almost directly in his footsteps.

The perspective transforms the poster into a moment of discovery. People walk through the sunlit street, café terraces and shopfronts animate the lower part of the image, while the Santa Justa Elevator rises vertically above the surrounding buildings. The contrast between the narrow street and the height of the tower makes the landmark appear almost unexpectedly at the end of the urban canyon.

Alecse’s distinctive technique blends photography, drawing and digital painting to soften architectural details, simplify shapes and transform the original scene into a contemporary interpretation of a vintage travel poster. Warm ochre façades, deep shadows and a pale blue sky recreate the intense light of Lisbon, while the painterly treatment gives the image the atmosphere of a remembered journey rather than a conventional city photograph.

Did you know? The Santa Justa Elevator was designed by Raoul Mesnier du Ponsard and opened to the public in 1902. Built to connect the lower streets of the Baixa with the higher Largo do Carmo, it originally operated using steam power before being converted to electricity a few years later. Its neo Gothic iron structure made an everyday piece of urban transport one of Lisbon’s most recognisable landmarks.

With SANTA JUSTA and LISBOA incorporated into the artwork, this Lisbon poster celebrates both an architectural icon and the experience of wandering through the Portuguese capital and suddenly finding one of its landmarks at the end of the street.

Part of Artful Travel™, Alecse’s collection of travel artworks inspired by real places, personal journeys and the visual memory of discovering them.

Limited edition of 300 prints worldwide, across all sizes combined.

Alecse’s Vintage Style: blurs & grains


This vintage travel poster of Santa Justa Elevator Poster Lisbon reflects Alecse’s distinctive artistic approach. Through his signature half-tone render, the artwork evokes the atmosphere of Portugal with a timeless retro aesthetic.

Alecse's Original Travel Posters are celebrated for their unique half-tone render, a signature style that plays a crucial role in their appeal and authenticity. This distinctive digital effect is intentionally used to mimic the old poster printing process, where colors were rendered by the juxtaposition of dots of different sizes and colors. This method is a nod to vintage aesthetics, giving each poster a classic, retro look that aficionados of vintage travel and retro posters appreciate.

Half-Tone vs. Pixelization:

  • Half-Tone is an artistic technique used to create shading and texture effects in images. It involves the arrangement of dots of varying sizes and spacing to simulate different shades of color. This technique was traditionally used in the printing industry to reproduce photographs and illustrations with a limited color palette, contributing to a poster's vintage appearance.
  • Pixelization, on the other hand, refers to an effect seen in digital images when they are enlarged beyond their resolution. This results in the individual pixels becoming visible, making the image appear blocky or mosaic-like. Pixelization is often considered a flaw or limitation of digital images, unlike the half-tone effect, which is a deliberate artistic choice.

like all his posters, Santa Justa Elevator Poster Lisbon by Alecse™ is printed in Fine Art 12 Giclées, ensuring high-quality reproductions that honor the original artistic intent. While these art prints are not meant to be crisp like photographs and intentionally include blurs and vintage effects, it's essential to distinguish these artistic choices from potential printing defects. A clear indication of a print's quality is the crispness of the signature and titles; if these elements are not sharp, it may indicate a printing issue.

For those interested in the intricate details of Alecse's work or wanting to appreciate the half-tone effect fully, we offer the option to receive a close-up picture in High Definition before placing an order. This allows customers to make informed decisions and ensures satisfaction with their purchase of vintage travel and retro posters, enhancing their collection with pieces that truly represent the artist's vision and the era's printing techniques.
