carnival of nice 1950

Carnaval de Nice was created by Jean Luc in 1950 for the celebrated annual carnival held in Nice, France. The event, one of the oldest and most famous carnivals in the world, is known for its elaborate parades, colorful floats, and lively street celebrations along the Promenade des Anglais.

The 1950 edition took place during the postwar revival of the carnival, when the city was re-establishing its cultural traditions and welcoming international visitors back to the French Riviera.

Printed by Imprimerie Meyerbeer in Nice using lithography, the poster captures the festive spirit of the Riviera’s signature winter event. This example has been mounted on linen for preservation and is in excellent “A” condition.
