About the Item

Original AIRS DE CHANCE Loterie Nationale French vintage poster. Translated, it means, "In the moonlight, my friend Pierrot, lend me your money to win the jackpot." Linen-backed original French lottery poster. Artist: Grove. Transport yourself to the golden era of French vintage artistry with this charming Loterie Nationale poster. Featuring the poetic phrase, "In the moonlight, my friend Pierrot, lend me your money to win the jackpot," this enchanting design captures the whimsical spirit of mid-century France—a time when hope and dreams of fortune danced in the moonlight. This poster is not just a collectible—it’s a piece of history. The reference to Pierrot, a beloved character in French culture symbolizing innocence and longing, adds a lyrical and nostalgic touch. Its vivid artwork and playful theme evoke the romance of moonlit nights and the thrill of chasing the ultimate prize. The Loterie Nationale was created in France in May 1933. Its dividends were slated for a retirement fund in favor of the war veterans. Beginning in 1952, the Loterie Nationale faced tough competition from the PMU (horse races). The last drawing of the Loterie Nationale took place in December 1990, when it is was replaced by the more and more popular Loto. As the caption says: "In the moonlight, my friend Pierrot, let me have some dough to win the jackpot!" Excellent condition and ready to frame. This is an original vintage lithograph poster; it is not a reproduction.

Loterie Nationale Original Vintage French Poster by Derouet Lesacq c1939
Located in Boca Raton, FL
This is one of a series of posters created for the Loterie Nationale (National Lottery) in France by a team of artists known as Derouet-Lesacq. In these posters, the element of simplicity is emphasized, allowing the artists to apply detail to the array of environments that these posters are set in. This Art Deco style poster is for a special Homemaking (Arts Menagers) lottery drawing. The man in the center of the image is shown lounging on a chair, presenting an unplugged chord, demonstrating comfort after his lottery win. The French Government promoted a nationwide lottery for many years, and during the 1930’s they commissioned artist Edgar Derouet to create many of their posters. Derouet realized his posters either alone or with one of his many collaborators. This poster is the result of a collaboration with Charles Lesacq, who worked with Derouet from 1938 to 1940. Edgar Derouet (1910-2001) is known for his simplistic, geometric and modern advertising posters for the French Lottery (Loterie Nationale). Derouet was selected by France to create a campaign for the Loterie Nationale because of his well-known reputation as a graphic artist. In his earlier days, Derouet studied with well-known poster artists Paul Colin and George Hamel, allowing him to further perfect his illustration technique. Derouet won an award for Best Poster of the Year in 1936 and was featured at the International Exposition in Paris, France in 1937. Charles Lesacq (1909-1940) was a French artist best known for his French National Lottery poster...
