This vibrant original poster from 2000 was designed by Richard Roussel for CMA CGM, the renowned French shipping line. Promoting the Europe – Antilles route, the poster captures the sleek modernity of international maritime transport at the dawn of the 21st century. Rendered in a stylised Art Deco revival aesthetic, the composition features the towering hull and superstructure of a CMA CGM container ship set against a glowing orange sunset sky, with minimalist geometric containers, a tropical palm, and a lone seagull in flight evoking the Caribbean destination. The poster’s bold blocks of colour and clean lines convey the efficiency, speed, and scale of global shipping routes linking Europe with the Antilles. Richard Roussel, a French graphic designer known for his streamlined, elegant transport and industrial posters, creates here an image that is both corporate branding and a tribute to maritime commerce. Ideal for collectors of modern nautical ephemera or CMA CGM memorabilia, this poster is a striking piece of contemporary graphic design celebrating the dynamism of international trade.
