Le Grand-Duché de Luxembourg Two Official Exhibition Publications, 1935 & 1937
A rare pair of official Luxembourg publications produced for the Exposition Universelle et Internationale de Bruxelles (1935) and the Exposition Internationale de Paris (1937).
The 1935 volume, Le Grand-Duché de Luxembourg, presents the nation’s history, culture and public life through illustrated text and photographic plates, issued under official patronage for international display.
The 1937 publication, created for the Paris World’s Fair, is housed in a gilt-decorated portfolio with embossed national emblems and Art Deco design, containing illustrated plates and exhibition material highlighting Luxembourg’s cultural, artistic and industrial achievements.
Together, the pair offers a strong visual and documentary record of Luxembourg’s international presence in the interwar period, with clear appeal to collectors of World’s Fair material, European history and Art Deco design.
