Air France Zodiac Planisphere by Boucher, 1938

Extremely rare, limited edition, vintage Air France Zodiac Planisphere by Boucher dating from 1938.  Boucher was a master of integrating artistry with geography, and this poster exemplifies his early style. The planisphere is both decorative and informative, showcasing the globe and marking the flight paths that connected Europe, Africa, the Americas, Asia, and beyond. With intricate details and imaginative design, Boucher captures the global vision of Air France, reflecting its ambition to connect the pre-WW2 world. 

This is not to be confused with the more commonly available 1950s version by the same artist.  Beautifully restored and mounted on linen backing.
