About the Item
This stunning original poster by Julio Garcia, dating from around 1940, is a rare and vivid celebration of the Basque Country’s strong ties to the sea. With its bold colors and stylized composition, the artwork captures a dynamic tuna swimming in the green Atlantic waters, while a fishing boat, emblematic of the region's maritime heritage, navigates through the waves in the background.
A fortified coastal tower and the outline of the rugged Basque coastline rise on the horizon, evoking a sense of place that is both wild and culturally rich. Garcia's design reflects the strength of local identity and tradition, especially in connection with fishing, one of the Basque Country’s most important economic and symbolic activities.
With its modernist flair and clear typographic title “PAYS BASQUE”, this poster is not only a promotional piece for French tourism but also a visual ode to regional pride and natural beauty.
Ideal for collectors of vintage French travel posters, nautical art, or lovers of the Basque region, this work stands out as a powerful and elegant tribute to the spirit of the southwest coast of France.
