Original vintage posters: Orientalism

Orientalism deeply shaped the advertising and tourism imagery of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, through posters evoking North Africa and the Near East and their landscapes, costumes and architecture as imagined by artists of the time. Our selection of antique orientalist posters is of interest to collectors of art and colonial history as well as decorators seeking an exotic, refined piece. Every poster offered by L'Afficheur is an authentic period lithograph or offset print, never a reproduction, presented with its historical and artistic context. A category that reflects the way the West once looked at the East through the art of the poster.
