About the Item

This vibrant vintage poster advertises Escargots Ménetrel, proudly declaring them “Exquisite! Exquisite!” (Exquis! Exquis!). The bold design features a large scarlet leaf upon which a golden snail rests, while a chef peeks eagerly from behind, delightfully highlighting the delicacy. The blue background makes the bright red and yellow hues pop, creating an image that is both playful and memorable. The poster also notes the long heritage of the company, “Maison fondée en 1683,” emphasizing centuries of tradition and expertise in the Burgundy region, famed for its gastronomy. The artist, Rudd, was a French illustrator active in the mid-20th century who contributed several lively and engaging poster designs for food and beverage products. His work is characterized by strong contrasts, simplified forms, and an emphasis on humor and direct appeal to the consumer. Like many poster artists of his era, Rudd understood the importance of creating an instantly recognizable image that could be grasped in a glance, whether seen on a Parisian street corner or in a bustling marketplace. This is an Original Vintage Poster, it is not a reproduction. This poster is conservation mounted, linen backed and in excellent condition. We guarantee the authenticity of all our posters.

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...
