"Wherever You Go You Can Be Sure Of Shell - Bodiam Castle" is a notable work by the American-born artist and graphic designer Edward McKnight Kauffer. Created in the 1930s, this piece is part of a series of posters commissioned by the Shell Oil Company to promote the use of automobiles and the exploration of the British countryside. Kauffer, who was a leading figure in the development of modern graphic design, utilized his distinctive style to create visually compelling and effective advertisements.

The poster features Bodiam Castle, a 14th-century moated castle located in East Sussex, England. Kauffer's depiction of the castle is both romantic and stylized, capturing the historical and picturesque essence of the location. The artwork employs bold colors and geometric forms, characteristic of Kauffer's approach, which was influenced by movements such as Cubism and Vorticism. The design not only serves as an advertisement for Shell but also as an invitation to the public to explore the scenic and historical sites of Britain by car.

Kauffer's work for Shell is significant in the history of advertising and graphic design. His posters are celebrated for their artistic quality and their ability to convey a sense of adventure and discovery. The "Wherever You Go You Can Be Sure Of Shell" campaign is an early example of corporate branding that goes beyond mere product promotion, aiming to associate the brand with positive experiences and cultural enrichment.

Edward McKnight Kauffer's contribution to commercial art and his innovative use of modernist principles in advertising have left a lasting legacy. His work for Shell, including the Bodiam Castle poster, remains a testament to his skill in blending art with commerce, creating pieces that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
