Sun in a Glass - Birthday Greeting Card

BLANK INSIDE

This jubilant lady, conceived by the artistic mind of Leonetto Cappiello in 1927, proudly holds a glass of pure happiness. Originally featured in an advertisement for Monnet Cognac, a distillery crafting their delightful "sunny" cognacs since 1838 in the picturesque southwest of France, she captures the spirit of celebration and the timeless allure of a fine drink!

Leonetto Cappiello (1875–1942) was an Italian-French poster art pioneer and one of the most influential advertising artists of the early 20th century! Born in Livorno, Italy, he moved to Paris in 1898, where he began his illustrious career as a caricaturist. His innovative approach to poster design revolutionized the advertising industry. Cappiello's bold, colorful, and dynamic posters, often featuring exaggerated characters and vivid imagery, became iconic representations of the brands they promoted. Notable works include his creations for brands like Café Martin, Cachou Lajaunie, and Parapluie-Revel. His lasting impact on graphic design and advertising aesthetics is evident in the timeless appeal of his work.
