AIR FRANCE – EUROPE
Artist: Edmond Maurus
Date: 1948
Original Air France poster created by Edmond Maurus in 1948 and printed by Goossens. The composition presents a series of small vignettes showing well-known European landmarks arranged around a stylized map of the continent, promoting Air France’s postwar network of destinations.
At the center of the design appears one of Air France’s early postwar aircraft featuring the distinctive triple tail configuration, a detail of interest to aviation collectors. This likely represents the Lockheed Constellation, which was in service with Air France during the late 1940s and symbolized the modern expansion of international air travel after World War II.
Edmond Maurus was active as an illustrator and poster artist in France from the 1930s through the 1950s, producing designs for Air France and other travel-related clients. His work is characterized by precise draftsmanship, strong composition, and clear cartographic layout typical of French travel advertising in that period.
This is an authentic original lithograph printed in 1948 by Goossens. The poster has been professionally mounted on linen and is in excellent condition.
