LUCIEN BOUCHER (1899-1971)

AIR FRANCE / AMÉRIQUE DU SUD. 1950.


39x24 1/2 inches, 99x62 1/4 cm. Perceval, Paris.
Condition A-: small repaired tears at edges; minor restoration along horizontal fold.

A cloud-like wing, suggestive of Air France's emblem of the flying seahorse, lifts off to display the modern cities and verdant jungles of the continent below. In a clever graphic arrangement, the wing is in the shape of South America. This is the French version. Air France p. 43.
