FLY AIR FRANCE. ALGERIA LAND OF COLOR

FLY AIR FRANCE. ALGERIA LAND OF COLOR

France used to have a colonial empire, so it had to provide airline service to its colonies. A new type of poster appeared, promoting tourist attractions. The airline drew on mythology and highlighted the clash of cultures: the Africa that Air France flew over was an eternal land of folklore, a picturesque postcard for French tourists.
