Cie Gle Transatlantique French Line Antilles Colombie Venezuela Jamaïque c1950s Travel Poster, Albert Brenet

First-class travel glamour from the golden age of the French Line. Albert Brenet's poster for Compagnie Générale Transatlantique pairs a great white liner with an elegantly dressed Caribbean figure, selling the Antilles, Colombia, Venezuela and Jamaica in one lush image.

Brenet was a master of transport illustration, equally at home with ships, aircraft and railways. Here his painterly eye gives the poster warmth and sophistication, while the red typography keeps everything crisp and commercial.

This original poster has been professionally linen-backed and is sized approx. 24 5/8 x 39 inches (plus a little including the linen-backing). It will be sent rolled (unframed).
