Doves are a symbol of peace, but they proved to be a meaningful symbol in Picasso’s life, and the image showed up in many variations in his work. 

His images of the dove became a phenomenon around the world. Between 1949 and the artist's death, he created numerous works, including posters, prints and drawings, which depicted the Dove of Peace. Variations of the image were used for Peace Congresses in Wroclaw, Stockholm, Sheffield, Vienna, Rome and Moscow. Images were distributed around the world by the Peace Movement, creating new momentum for the artist's reputation.

For Picasso, the dove was both an important political symbol and a personal one. It was a reminder of his father, Jose Ruiz y Blasco, who was also a painter and had taught Picasso his early skills as an artist. He had drawn doves in Picasso's childhood home in Málaga in the 1880s. Later in life, when Picasso moved to Cannes in the South of France in 1955, he built a dovecote, allowing him to observe and depict the resident doves.
We found this collection of original vintage posters at the home of a collector in Aix-en-Provence. They were all printed in France by French image publishing company Nouvelles Images, established in 1957. 

Each poster is stamped on the reverse with a corresponding number. 

Please note while each are in good vintage condition, they may have slight signs of wear, including very small/slight creasing along the edges as pictured. 

Sold individually. Two styles of posters available.

Shipping Worldwide

Orders are processed within 3 to 7 business days, excluding weekends and holidays. You'll receive a notification with a tracking number once your order ships — please allow 48 hours for tracking to become active.

We ship French antiques and vintage European décor internationally, using Canada Post, FedEx, UPS, USPS, DHL, Canpar, and other local providers depending on the destination and the piece.

Where we can safely combine multiple purchases into one box, we will. Whether that's possible depends on the size and weight of each piece.

Local Pickup & Delivery

Pickup is free from our Pickering, Ontario shop at 1019 Toy Ave., Unit 5. Select local pickup at checkout and we'll be in touch to arrange a time.

We also offer local delivery. For small items, choose local delivery at checkout and the cost will be shown. For larger pieces marked local pickup preferred, email us for a quote.

We can hold an order for a maximum of 30 days. After that it is deemed abandoned and no refund is issued.

Need Longer Than 30 Days?

Contact us within 30 days of purchase to request an extension. If approved, storage is $100 CAD per 30 days, invoiced by email and payable within 5 business days. Unpaid invoices mean the order is deemed abandoned, and no refund is issued.

Oversized & Fragile Pieces

Items too large, heavy, or bulky for a standard carrier are marked local pickup preferred in the listing. Please email jolietteshipping@gmail.com with the item and your full address for a quote before you purchase.

All items are final sale, including any bought before a shipping quote was requested. We would far rather answer your questions first.

Duties, Taxes & Import Fees

International buyers are responsible for any duties, taxes, and import fees. US customers should expect tariffs collected on delivery. These are charged by the destination government, not by Joliette — we do not set them, receive them, or have any way to estimate them in advance.

Packages left unclaimed because duties were not paid cannot be refunded.

If Something Arrives Damaged

Email jolietteshipping@gmail.com within 30 days of delivery with photographs of the damage. We will work with you to make it right.

They have such great products I could not stay away. I don't live near their store so I did not expect to be able to purchase furniture online at a decent shipping rate. I was so happy to see that the shipping rate was amazing and the customer service even better. I highly recommend them and will most likely purchase from them again!
