The name Ralph Mott is a pseudonym for the British graphics agency Ralph & Mott who employed a variety of artists - their chief designer was Reg Lander. This striking poster design was created by commissioning a photographic shoot and then overlaying the cut-out image onto a painted background.
It is not know if this particular design was used as part of a poster campaign though a number of other similar designs are known to have been printed.
