Colorful hills, palm trees and a bustling market fill this American Airlines poster for Haiti, painted in a flat, bright style that echoes the country's celebrated naive art. Haitian painters became internationally known from the 1940s onward for exactly these subjects, crowded markets, tropical hillsides and village life rendered in vivid color, and the poster borrows that look to give travelers a taste of the island before they arrived. The artist and date of this design are not recorded.
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.
