Striking and atmospheric original travel poster from 1947, promoting Algeria as the “Land of Light”. Designed by Guy Nouen, the composition juxtaposes the serene visage of a veiled woman with a dreamlike rendering of white architecture and palm trees bathed in golden light—evoking the mystique and beauty of Algeria.
Published by the General Government of Algeria, this piece is part of the OFALAC series encouraging tourism and cultural appreciation.
Condition:
Very good overall. Paper loss to the upper left corner and a tear at the top and right margin, professionally mended with paper. Colors remain vibrant and the image presents beautifully. Would look stunning framed.
