Edmond Maurus

Edmond Maurus – Iconic Air France Posters

Edmond Maurus is one of the great illustrators of Air France's golden age of advertising, active from the 1940s to the 1950s. His graphic style, both refined and expressive, has marked the collective imagination and accompanied the company's international expansion after the Second World War.

The Edmond Maurus collection offered by Oneart brings together several historical posters, true testimonies to the prestige and adventurous spirit of the early days of commercial aviation. Among the flagship creations are "Air France shines on the world" (1946), which symbolizes the company's power and global reach with a luminous globe and the winged seahorse, "French West Africa" (1946), an ode to exploration and modernity, and "Paris-Mexico" (1954), celebrating the connection between France and Mexico through vibrant colors and evocative scenes[2][4][5].

All posters are art reproductions printed on 200g Hahnemühle matte paper, available in several standard sizes (30x40 cm, 50x70 cm, 60x80 cm). They are handcrafted in our workshop in Fontainebleau, under official Air France license, and bear a dry stamp guaranteeing their authenticity. Each poster is taken from the Air France historical heritage collections, offering an ideal collector's item for graphic art, travel and aviation history enthusiasts[2][3][4][5].
