About the Item
Original 1962 poster by Roger Chapelet titled "Le Maroc par les paquebots rapides de la compagnie de navigation Paquet" transports viewers to the exotic allure of Morocco via the swift vessels of the Paquet Navigation Company.
Crafted with vibrant colors and captivating imagery, the poster evokes a sense of adventure and romance associated with travel to this North African destination. Against a backdrop of azure waters and clear skies, the majestic "Ancerville" cruise liner takes center stage, symbolizing luxury and comfort.
Departing from Marseille and Port-Vendres, the "Ancerville" offers a seamless journey to the bustling ports of Tangier and Casablanca, promising travelers an unforgettable experience filled with cultural immersion and scenic exploration.
The poster's bold typography and evocative imagery capture the excitement of travel during the early 1960s, a time when ocean liners were the epitome of elegance and sophistication. It invites viewers to embark on a voyage of discovery, where ancient medinas, bustling souks, and breathtaking landscapes await.
As a promotional piece, the poster reflects the broader cultural fascination with exotic destinations and the growing accessibility of travel to the masses. It serves as a testament to the enduring allure of Morocco as a travel destination and the timeless appeal of oceanic voyages.

Roger Chapelet
Roger Chapelet was in love with the sea. Young, adventurous, eager to learn and to see, he embarked on several sailing ships, including the famous codfish tall ships of St-Malo in Brittany. Chapelet crossed the North Atlantic numerous times to Greenland and Newfoundland. In 1936, he was awarded the appointment of "Peintre de la Marine" by the French Cultural Ministry, upon recommendation of the Governors of the cultural board of the French Navy. From 1939–49, he served in the French Navy and the Merchant Navy. Since 1946, Chapelet devoted his full time to his artistic career with regular sailing voyages, including quite a few on the "Sagres" which represented the Portuguese Navy at the Bicentennial parade of tall ships in New York. The artist is an accomplished sailor, who loves and respects everything which belongs to the sea. Tall ships in particular. His paintings reflect his experience and his feelings. The artist is in full control of his talent to create a balanced and harmonious composition. Color, light and motion are Chapelet's forte. Through soft, tender, yet vibrant colors, the artist shows his French heritage. He expresses his feelings in elegant simplicity, yet with a definite maritime character.
