Aviation Larousse
Originally produced for the Larousse encyclopaedia, this vintage aviation chart presents the early age of flight through the meticulous graphic language of 19th and early 20th-century scientific illustration. Aircraft diagrams, technical cross-sections, and classification schemes are arranged across the page with an organisational rigour that is itself beautiful — the work of draughtsmen who understood that clarity and visual elegance are not in competition. The muted, aged palette carries the authority of archival material handled with care.
On canvas, the chart takes on new presence. Printed in our Berlin studio on a cotton canvas surface, the weave adds subtle texture that honours the document's original materiality. Archival inks preserve every line in deep, lasting detail — a canvas print that works as both art and artefact.
