About Paris Poster — Our Story, Mission & Team
Our Story
Paris Poster was born from a simple observation: high-quality art shouldn't require a gallery budget. Founded by Cedric des Lauriers in Paris, France, our boutique bridges the gap between museum masterpieces and everyday living spaces. What started as a curated selection of vintage travel posters has grown into a catalog of over 1,400 designs spanning 30+ art movements — from Art Deco and Bauhaus to Japanese ukiyo-e and contemporary digital art.
Based at 21 rue de Lyon in the 12th arrondissement of Paris, we draw daily inspiration from the city's rich artistic heritage. Every piece in our collection is chosen to bring the same sense of discovery you'd feel wandering through the Musée d'Orsay or browsing a Left Bank gallery — but at a price that makes sense for real homes.
What We Do
We specialize in museum-quality giclée printing on 250gsm FSC-certified paper using archival pigment inks rated for 100+ years of color stability. Each poster is printed on demand in 6 sizes — from A5 (15×21cm) to 84×119cm — ensuring zero waste and consistent quality.
Our collection covers:
- 30+ art movements: Art Deco, Bauhaus, Pop Art, Impressionism, Japanese woodblock prints, botanical illustration, and more
- 40+ country collections: City posters from France, Japan, Italy, USA, UK, Spain, and beyond
- Sports art: 360+ posters across tennis, golf, rugby, basketball, F1, swimming, and the Olympics
- Embroidered clothing: A unique line of sport-inspired hoodies, sweaters, caps, beanies, and t-shirts
