About the Item
This stunning 1965 original travel poster by Matchatschek captures the magical nighttime atmosphere of Place de la Concorde, one of Paris' most historic and grand squares. The composition is centered on the Fountain of the Seas, with its elaborate sculptures illuminated by dramatic lighting, creating a mesmerizing effect as water cascades elegantly into the basin.
In the background, the majestic Luxor Obelisk, a 3,000-year-old monument from ancient Egypt, stands proudly, bathed in soft golden light. The glowing streetlamps, beams of light, and the subtle silhouettes of classical buildings frame the scene, evoking the romantic and timeless allure of Paris after dark.
The word “Paris” is artistically rendered in a chalk-like script, reinforcing the poster’s vintage appeal. Below, the subtitle “La Place de la Concorde la Nuit” sets the tone, emphasizing the serene elegance of the square at night.
This piece is a brilliant example of mid-century travel advertising, designed to captivate and inspire tourists to experience the enchanting beauty of Paris by night. A true collector’s item, it remains a testament to the city's everlasting charm.
