Lucien Boucher designed this 1951 Air France poster for Great Britain, trading his famous world maps for a gentle English landscape. A plane flies over a cottage among trees beside a lake, with green fields, grazing sheep and rolling hills beyond, and the shadow of London's Tower Bridge in the foreground. Boucher, who began drawing as a prisoner of war during the First World War and later worked as a caricaturist for the magazine Le Rire, designed for Air France from 1934 to 1962 and was known there as "Monsieur Planisphère."
The bag is made from 10-ounce canvas of 80% recycled cotton and 20% cotton. The recycled fibers are collected from garment-cutting waste and then intertwined with cotton for added strength and durability. Self-fabric handles. Dimensions: 15.75" h x 15.25" w; approx. 240 cubic inches.
