This original French poster was created for the 46th French Ski Championships, held in Barèges from February 25–28, 1959. The artwork, signed H. Mathieu (1958), captures a dynamic skier carving down the slope, the curve of his descent forming a bold ribbon in the colors of the French tricolor.
The poster was commissioned to promote the national ski championships and proudly features sponsorship from Pernod 45 and Pastis 51, two iconic French aperitifs of the era. Produced by Imprimerie Régionale, Toulouse, the design reflects mid-century French sports advertising with its strong colors, stylized graphics, and emphasis on national identity.
