Lucien Boucher (1889–1971) – Air France, the world’s largest network. 1959. Perceval Printers, Paris. Original poster, lithograph, mounted on canvas. In 8 sheets, mounted on canvas in 4 sections. Condition A – minor lifting. 247x396cm.
This extraordinary and rare planisphere bears witness to the grandeur of the airline at that time. With air traffic expanding rapidly, it was necessary to showcase the power of our legendary national airline, the flagship of the transport sector.
This piece was specifically intended to adorn the walls of luxurious travel agencies, and it is quite possible that it was also intended as décor for airports.
The poster, which is almost an atlas of geographical maps, reveals the main global routes served by flights from Paris.
