About the Item
This original 1965 travel poster by Alain Perceval presents a breathtaking aerial view of Paris, focusing on its historic heart: L'Île de la Cité and L'Île Saint-Louis. The Seine River, spanned by elegant bridges, winds through the city, guiding the viewer’s eye toward some of its most iconic landmarks. The Notre-Dame Cathedral, with its striking Gothic architecture, stands prominently, anchoring the composition in a scene of timeless beauty.
The perspective captures the dense urban fabric of Paris, highlighting the intricate network of streets, grand boulevards, and classical buildings that define the city’s charm. The lush greenery lining the riverbanks and the historic Pont Neuf, the city's oldest standing bridge, add depth and elegance to the composition.
Emphasizing the grandeur of the French capital, the word “PARIS” is boldly positioned in the foreground, reinforcing the city’s unmistakable identity. Part of a celebrated series of mid-century travel posters, Perceval’s work embodies the romantic allure and historical depth that make Paris an enduring symbol of culture and refinement.
This poster is a collector’s gem, offering a captivating glimpse of 1960s Paris, when the city was experiencing a renewed wave of international tourism. With its rich detail and masterful composition, it remains a stunning visual celebration of the City of Light.
