This poster illustrated by Lotza highlights an emblematic mountain landscape of Occitanie, with a majestic mouflon in the foreground, typical of the Caroux massif, and in the background a town dominated by a red brick church, a faithful reflection of the local architecture. Carefully created on Illustrator and printed in Charente, this creation pays homage to the natural, historical and cultural richness of this region of southern France.
Occitania is a land of character, marked by centuries of history and a strong identity. Its name is inherited from the Occitan language, spoken here since the Middle Ages, and still present through traditions, place names, and living heritage. The region was deeply marked by the Albigensian Crusade in the 13th century, a struggle against the Cathars that left many traces in the landscapes and memories.
Toulouse, nicknamed the Pink City, with its brick facades and cultural vitality, or Carcassonne, famous for its fortified medieval city, are among the region's urban gems. But Occitanie also boasts impressive and contrasting natural beauty: the peaks of the Pyrenees, the Tarn Gorges, the hills of Lauragais, the dry scrubland of Languedoc, and the Caroux Massif, a preserved territory where mouflon roams in a wild setting.
The region's richness is also expressed in its gastronomy: comforting cassoulet, characterful wines, seafood, and local specialties. Occitania also lives to the rhythm of its traditions: Occitan festivals, farmers' markets, ferias, and cultural festivals enliven towns and villages throughout the year.
This poster captures all this diversity and authenticity. It invites escape, discovery, or memory for those who hold Occitanie close to their hearts. Perfect for decorating an interior with a touch of nature and local history, it will appeal to lovers of the region as well as art and heritage enthusiasts.
