Original Air France Afrique Occidentale Poster c1950 by Vincent Guerra
Est: $1,000 - $1,400
This colorful design features the profile of an African person wearing a round gold earring with the Air France Pegasus logo, which after careful design is at the center of the poster. In the foreground, the artist, Vincent Guerra, had incorporated an image of two African natives grinding corn in a mortar, which is a traditional way to make local food. Overhead a plane is flying over and possibly about to land nearby. The color theme is consistent with the Pan-African colors of green, gold, and red, and this poster is part of Air Franceâs campaign to promote its international routes, including Africa. Air France was formed on 7 October 1933, from a merger of Air Orient, Air Union, Compagnie GÃ©nÃ©rale AÃ©ropostale, Compagnie Internationale de Navigation AÃ©rienne (CIDNA) and SociÃ©tÃ© GÃ©nÃ©rale des Transports AÃ©riens (SGTA). Among these airlines, SGTA was the first commercial airline company in France, having been founded as Lignes AÃ©riennes Farman in 1919. At the time when Air France was formed, the constituent members of Air France had already built extensive networks across Europe, to French colonies in North Africa and farther afield. During World War II, Air France moved its operations to Casablanca (Morocco). As of 2013 Air France serves 36 destinations in France and operates worldwide scheduled passenger and cargo services to 168 destinations in 78 countries. It served as France's primary national flag carrier for seven decades prior to its 2003 merger with KLM. Posters have always been essential to Air Franceâs communications. It has one of the greatest collections in the world with over 1500 posters created by the most famous illustrators. Air France posters are usually striking, with few words, and depict destinations as dream-like and air travel as making dreams come true. Vincent Guerra was a French painting artist, who created a lot of stunning Air France posters after WWII. This is an Original Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction. This poster is conservation mounted, linen backed, and in excellent condition. We guarantee the authenticity of all of our posters.

Guetta made a beautiful poster in ochre tones in 1946 . . . illustrating three elephants on a background of coconut trees with a plane overhead . . . Unfortunately, he had used photographs of Asian elephants for his documentation"; their ears are shorter than African elephants.

VINCENT GUERRA Afrique occidental
Est: €250 - €500
Just after the end of the war, France had to provide airline service to its colonies. A new type of poster appeared, promoting tourist attractions. The airline drew on mythology and highlighted the clash of cultures: pagodas and riverboats, in contrast to the modernity and mechanics of the airplane. A recurring design incorporated the airplane, underscoring the opposition between travel geared for the future and the immutability of these countries. The Africa that Air France flew over was an eternal land of folklore. The posters were parables echoing the relationship of now-dated colonial thought: modernity versus secular tradition. Lithograph poster printed by Alépée & Cie, linen backed, A condition. Dimensions in inches: 19.3 x 12.2''.
