About the Item
The Japan Air Lines (JAL) poster is based on Uemura Shōen's 1936 painting titled Jo-no-mai (also known as Noh Dance Prelude). This artwork is a celebrated example of the nihonga style, depicting a woman in a red kimono performing a traditional Noh dance. The painting is recognized as an Important Cultural Property in Japan and is housed at the University Art Museum, Tokyo University of the Arts.
In the 1960s, JAL utilized this iconic image in their promotional materials to evoke the elegance and cultural heritage of Japan, aiming to attract international travelers. By featuring Shōen's Jo-no-mai, JAL bridged traditional Japanese art with modern travel, presenting a harmonious blend of past and present to the global audience.
The simple, bold lettering of "JAPAN AIR LINES" at the top and "JAPAN" at the lower left reflects a clean, international modernism, contrasting beautifully with the timeless aesthetic of the figure. The result is an image that bridges East and West, ancient and modern—a hallmark of JAL’s brand during this golden era of travel.
This is an Original Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction. It is conservation mounted, linen backed, and in excellent condition. We guarantee the authenticity of all of our posters.
