Roger Broders

[1] He was best known for his travel posters promoting tourism destinations in France, typically fashionable beaches of the Côte d'Azur and skiing resorts in the French Alps in the early 20th century.

[2] Broders' illustrations were distinctive for their simple lines and bold, flat areas of color, combined with noticeable graphical perspective showing the featured mountains and seascapes in the background.

Broders' illustrations depicting people show active elongated figures wearing elegant, contemporary clothes.

The Paris Lyon Mediteranée Company (PLM), a railway, commissioned Broders' poster art, sponsoring his travel so he could visit the subjects of his work.

During the 1940s he illustrated four of the works of the German author Karl May which were published by Éditions Mame at Tours in France in French language.
