Vintage poster from Air France, from 1948 promoting flights to the "Near East." The image features a Lockheed Constellation airplane flying over a desert landscape. In the foreground, a man in traditional clothing is riding a camel, and we see monuments characteristic of the Near East, including minarets and domes, likely inspired by Egypt (with the Sphinx visible) or other regions of the Middle East. This poster reflects the rise of air travel after World War II, with Air France playing a significant role in the development of international routes, particularly to exotic and distant destinations like the Near East.
