Bring timeless elegance and historic charm to your space with this rare collection of 7 hand-colored lithographs originally featured as menu covers aboard the MS Lafayette, a French luxury liner from the 1930s. These prints were commissioned by the Compagnie Générale Transatlantique (French Line) as part of their homage to the traditional costumes of Normandy.

Each piece highlights a woman from a specific Norman town, dressed in regional attire that reflects the customs and lifestyle of 18th–19th century France. Originally issued in 1937, these lithographs are beautifully preserved and professionally matted and framed, ready to hang.
