Air France - North America - Vintage Poster by Nathan - 1960

A graphic tribute to a continent of contrasts, this travel poster by Nathan, created in 1960 for Air France, captures the modern and multifaceted spirit of North America through a stylized composition. Printed in Paris by Imprimerie Courbet, this linen-backed lithograph measuring 39.4 x 24.8 inches combines bold color blocks, iconic symbols, and a keen sense of visual staging.

At the center, a forest of colorful skyscrapers rises like a totemic motif - a direct homage to the skylines of Chicago or New York. Surrounding it are three framed vignettes: an oil rig symbolizing industry, a stylized cactus representing the arid Southwest, and a paddle steamer on the Mississippi evoking the charm of the Old South. Above, an Air France airplane soars across the sky - a subtle nod to modern aviation.

Nathan here crafts a fragmented, graphic, and captivating vision of America, distilled into its most striking clichés, in a distinctly 1960s style - clear, vibrant, accessible, and effective.

Linen-backed and preserved in A+ condition, this rare poster will appeal equally to collectors of Air France artwork and admirers of modernist graphic design, drawn to the powerful use of symbolism and the refined simplicity of travel illustration.
