Original travel poster by Albert Sébille - Cie Gle Transatlantique " France"

Circa 1930

About the Item

In the realm of vintage travel posters, the Circa 1930 original poster of Albert Sébille for the Cie Gle Transatlantique "France" stands as a remarkable testament to the golden age of ocean liners. This iconic artwork not only captures the elegance and glamour of transatlantic travel during the early 20th century but also showcases the exceptional talent of its creator, Albert Sébille. The poster features the majestic ocean liner "France" as its central focus, proudly navigating the open seas. The ship is depicted with striking precision, emphasizing its grandeur and modernity. Passengers dressed in fashionable attire can be seen on deck, exuding an air of sophistication and luxury. The poster evokes the allure of the time when crossing the Atlantic was an adventure in itself, and the journey was as important as the destination. Albert Sébille, the artist behind this masterpiece, was a prominent figure in the world of French graphic design and poster art during the early 20th century. He was known for his ability to capture the essence of a subject with precision and style, a skill that is abundantly evident in his work for the Cie Gle Transatlantique "France." Sébille's use of bold, vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail allowed him to bring the "France" to life on paper, making the poster an instant classic. The poster serves as both a promotional piece for the Cie Gle Transatlantique's ocean liner and a reflection of the era's cultural values. The 1930s marked a period when travel, especially transatlantic travel, was a symbol of prestige and sophistication. The "France" poster was not merely an advertisement; it was a piece of art that conveyed the dreams and aspirations of an era. Maritime Company - Boat - Transport Statue of Liberty F.
