Artist Feature: Percy Trompf

Percy Trompf (1902–1964) was one of Australia’s most celebrated poster artists, known for his vibrant Art Deco travel designs from the 1920s to the 1950s.

The 19 Trompf designs currently available on our website exemplify his bold use of colour, simplified forms and cheerful depictions of beaches, rail journeys and iconic Australian landscapes.

Trompf’s work captured the optimism and modern leisure spirit of early-to-mid-20th-century Australia and helped define how Australia promoted itself to the world.

Owning a Trompf reproduction from Retro Print Merchants offers a meaningful connection to Australia’s cultural heritage. More than just decorative art, these are authentically reproduced pieces of Australian history and capture the golden age of travel and the national spirit of adventure from the 1920s to the 1950s.
