Nouvelles Images ~ Quintessentially French

Cafe image

Nouvelles Image is a French Institution. The company celebrated 50 years of existence in 2007. Most people who have lived in Europe or live there now,
are familiar with their photographs, beautifully colorful, whimsical, romantic, poignant, funny and everything else.

The creator of the company, Jacques Blanc, was one of the pioneer of the industry, one of the first to ask artists permission to license their work, and
reproduce it for the public at large. Initially this took the form of postcards.

As the company grew, so did the applications made possible by the images: framed, displayed in furniture stores, creating a while new industry in an area where nothing was previously available.

In the 80s, Nouvelles Images starts commemorating events, from World Cup Soccer, to political events, art happenings, society evolving.
