One sheet vintage travel advertisement designed by the Danish artist Otto Nielsen (1916-2000).
The poster, created for the Scandinavian Airlines System (SAS), promotes travel to the Far East. It features two red-crowned cranes in a marsh, with a small SAS airplane subtly integrated into the artwork, a common element in Nielsen's designs for the airline. The poster is a blend of traditional Asian art and modern European aesthetics. It was produced in the 1950s or 1960s and is now a sought-after collector's item.
This poster is an example of the kind of art that helped shape the visual identity of SAS and reflects the "glamorous and adventurous" nature of air travel during that era. |
