Paintings of artists from Poland?

It was after all 50 years ago.

And not at all racist given the lady's appearance.

Actually, it was not only sexist but racist, too. A dark female serving while males.

We don't know who she's serving; they're outside the picture. It could be one of the Shirelles.

Unfortunately, we do. Who travelled by air 50 years ago most frequently???

That depends. First class has always been eclectic, and those sitting in first on flights to Poland may well have been diplomats from around the world.

This is off-topic though. Why not post some art instead?

No, it is NOT. We are commenting on art of the past, aren`t we? :):):)


Tomorrow. :):)

There were no black flying attendants at that time in PLL LOT, so this lady is white and only well tanned and serving was her job (extremely well paid for that time).

Prove it!!!!

Mr Google checked it. Is this prove enough?

Definitely intended to be white (blue eyes) not even sure about the tanned part as the whole thing is very stylized....

You never know.

Yes and the slogan on the poster makes it even worse, I think... Besides, it's pretty dreadful artwise... There were better LOT posters, imho.

Haven't you heard, SEX SELLS !

It's of its time, and by a well known artist.

@jon357, I know, I kept a book for children from my childhood with his illustrations :):



I can't say I'm a great fan of his style, but he did better stuff than that poster, imho.

He reminds me of another artist working in the same period. Hard to remember which.

Here`s even a more sexist poster. Outrageous. Fekking male chauvinist swine made and propagated it.

@pawian

I agree sexist posters are disgusting!

Not every Polish man is proficient on the vacuum cleaner.
