This is my Christmas present for my nephew Henry who is 18 months old and lives by the beach at Avalon. The print is from Hervé Morvan (1917–1980) a great French poster artist and designer.
He created ranges of advertising posters for food and drink in particular perrier, household products, fashion, travel and exhibitions, alcohol, film and music, and greeting cards. This one is for "Jeunesse Au Plein Air" to help raise funds in support of youth outdoor leisure centres in France. Morvan's posters often featured lovely characters in happy and joyful settings, have a look below at some examples.
