If more people only knew that "Sardine Fishing” was such a breathtaking, sunrise-slathered enterprise, they just might not turn their noses up at the tinned, fishy treats. Truly a spectacular design by Alo–one in which his Beaux Arts training shines through in all its postimpressionistic glory–for the relatively obscure getaway spot. Apart from Morgat’s fishing village heritage, the hamlet on the Breton peninsula offers fine beaches, caves and cliff scenery. Automobile touring services originating in nearby Quimper are also mentioned at the poster’s bottom.
