Description:

This is an original 1967 vintage Air France poster designed by Georges Mathieu to promote travel to Allemagne (Germany). The poster features a textured gold background with a bold, black abstract composition that evokes architectural elements — possibly referencing Gothic cathedrals or industrial structures, interpreted through Mathieu’s energetic calligraphic style.

The title “Allemagne” is printed in dramatic red Gothic lettering at the top, while “Air France” anchors the composition in matching red type at the bottom. The artist's signature appears in red on the left side.

This poster is part of a limited series of 16 artworks created by Mathieu for Air France. The series was commissioned by Pierre Sautet, Deputy Commercial Director of Air France, and unveiled on October 26, 1967, at the Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris. The collection is notable for its dynamic abstraction and luxurious color palettes, merging modern art with mid-century travel advertising.

This particular piece shows signs of its age: pinholes, a tiny hole, crumpling, and margin wear — consistent with vintage display. Still, it remains a striking and collectible example of Mathieu’s work and 1960s travel poster design.
