On Saturday, April 6th at 2:30 PM, a conference will be held at the Terra Amata Museum, focusing on the image of Nice through posters from the Belle Époque to the Roaring Twenties.
Nice is a city whose development is primarily based on tourism. Since the 19th century, the capital of the French Riviera has particularly carefully crafted its image, both literally and figuratively. The medium of the poster plays a fundamental role in this process. This conference will allow for an analysis of this significant production. It will reveal the evolution of the representations that Nice wishes to disseminate in France and abroad from the Belle Époque to the Roaring Twenties to maintain its attractiveness.
Better Understanding the City of Nice
The Terra Amata Prehistory Museum will host this conference. It will be an opportunity to travel back in time and delve into the past. An excellent way to understand the image Nice has today and the vision it promoted in the past.
