About the Item
Leonetto Cappiello was truly a master of his craft, and this rare example shows his talent off in full. He employs his extensive art training in the elegant twisting of the woman's body, allowing her to both float through the air with ease and joy while still being strong enough to confidently hoist the bounty of Gautier grapes above her shoulders. It is all done in an unusual and desirable blue and and yellow color palette; one that the artist did not frequently use. It is a joyous image, perfect for the entertaining areas of the home.
Maison Gautier Cognac traces its history back to 1644 when Charles Gautier, the son of an oak merchant (read: barrels) married Jacquette Brochet, the daughter of a vineyard owner. The company went "on the books" in 1755 with a royal warrant from King Louis XV and count this year as their true founding. The cognac is made to this day in its ancient water mill in the small French village of Aigre.
Leonetto Cappiello (1875-1942) was an Italian poster artist who worked in Paris. He is known for modernizing advertising design for the 20th Century. His compositions are uncomplicated and often feature a graceful figure with an oversized rendition of the product against a simple color background. The typography is often minimized to be as direct and short as possible. This innovation allowed for the advertising to be eye-catching and understood at a moments’ glance. It was ideal for the fast paced travel and attention of busy city life.

Leonetto Cappiello
Leonetto Cappiello was born in 1875 in Livorno, Italy, but took on the nationality of French in 1930. He first achieved fame as a caricaturist, then by inventing the modern poster and creating the first brand logos, including the green devil for Maurin Quina. A self-taught artist, he created his first paintings in 1886. In November of 1900, he signed his first contract with the publisher P. Vercasson, for whom he produced posters from 1902 to 1913. After World War I he joined the publisher Devambez, for whom he worked until 1936. In 1922, his poster sketches were exhibited at the Venice Biennial and the French Institut in New York. In 1928 his “Self Portrait” was ordered by the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy. In 1936 he participated in the Milan Triennial and the Exhibition of the French Poster in Prague. After his death in 1942, Cappiello’s work was the subject of retrospectives at the Museum of Decorative Arts in Paris in 1947, the House of Culture in Livorno, Italy, in 1960 and the Grand Palais in Paris in 1981.
