Original Vintage Air France Travel Poster 1947

Air France/ Paris travel poster by Pierre Baudouin (1921-1971) 

In the post-World War ll era, Air France was rapidly expanding its routes for commercial air travel. This expansion was heavily promoted by the effective use of original posters created by great artists of the era. There is no more famous destination than Paris and its Arc de Triomphe and it is depicted so artistically by the artist Baudouin.

This poster was created in 1947 and conveys the beauty of the area in a night scene view from overhead. The magic of Paris is so well conveyed by the artist.

This image was later used in other iterations with different models of airplanes in the lower right corner.
