Air France PAR Orly Vintage Poster – Florent F. Margaritis Serigraph (1970)
This original Air France “PAR Orly” serigraph poster was created in December 1970 (12.70) by Florent F. Margaritis, known for elegant graphic work for Air France in the early 1970s.
The poster features a minimalist silhouette composition, depicting a traveler figure in bold black form set against a clean background. The expressive lines and simplified design reflect the period’s modern graphic style while evoking the sophistication and glamour associated with international air travel.
The text “PAR Orly – France” references Paris Orly Airport, one of the primary gateways to Paris and an important hub for Air France during the mid‑20th century. Posters like this were produced as part of the airline’s visual identity and promotional materials during a time when airlines often collaborated with contemporary artists.
Florent F. Margaritis also created menu artwork for Air France during the same era, contributing to the airline’s distinctive visual culture that blended travel, design, and fine art.
With its refined simplicity and strong graphic presence, this poster is a wonderful example of 1970s airline advertising and modernist travel design.
