Circa 1960 travel screen print - Meet All of the East in Malaya (Malaysia)
Located in PARIS, FR
The circa 1960 travel sérigraphie, Meet All of the East in Malaya, is a captivating piece of promotional art designed to attract tourists to Southeast Asia, particularly Malaya (now part of Malaysia). Created during a time when international travel was booming, the poster was intended to highlight the region’s appeal as a destination, focusing on the richness of its culture, landscapes, and the dynamic contrast between tradition and modernity. The poster was produced using the sérigraphie (screen printing) technique, which was widely used during the mid-20th century for creating bold, vibrant advertisements. Sérigraphie allowed for the mass production of posters with striking colors, making it an effective medium for catching the attention of potential travelers. Posters like this one were instrumental in promoting tourism by visually presenting a destination as a place full of adventure, cultural discovery, and natural beauty.

1963 exhibition of the painter Georges Braque and the poet René Char
Located in PARIS, FR
In 1963, the Bibliothèque littéraire Jacques Doucet in Paris hosted an exhibition titled Livres Gravures Manuscrits Documents, a collaboration between two prominent figures in 20th-century art and literature: the painter Georges Braque and the poet René Char. The exhibition, which showcased their shared interest in the intersections of visual art and written word, was accompanied by a distinctive original poster that has since become a celebrated piece of design in its own right. The Livres Gravures Manuscrits Documents exhibition focused on the works Braque created alongside René Char, combining Braque’s renowned printmaking and visual art with Char's literary texts. Braque, best known for his role in the development of Cubism alongside Pablo Picasso, had a lifelong interest in the integration of text and image, often producing works that bridged the gap between painting, collage, and typography. René Char, a highly respected poet and close collaborator of Braque, shared this interest in the relationship between the visual and the verbal, and their combined works formed a powerful dialogue between the two mediums. The exhibition highlighted a selection of Braque’s engravings and lithographs, many of which were created in collaboration with Char’s poetry. These works, which included books, manuscripts, and documents, displayed the seamless fusion of language and image, where the words were not simply illustrations or captions but were integral parts of the compositions themselves. The exhibition provided an opportunity for visitors to experience how the two artists blurred the boundaries between their respective disciplines. The original exhibition poster for Livres Gravures Manuscrits Documents exemplified the spirit of the exhibition itself. While the exact design details may vary in interpretation, the poster captured the essence of Braque’s and Char’s collaboration—combining elements of the written word with visual art in a way that resonated with the avant-garde movement of the time. The poster, much like the exhibition, served as an invitation to explore the creative synergy between two masters of their respective fields, inviting the viewer to reflect on the interplay of language and visual expression. The Bibliothèque littéraire Jacques Doucet, the venue for this important exhibition, was an ideal setting for showcasing this unique collaboration. As a repository of rare manuscripts...

La Sera - Original Vintage Advertising Lithographby L. Metlicovitz - 1900 ca.
Located in Roma, IT
Image dimensions: 15.3x26.5 cm. La Sera is an amazing colored lithograph on cardboard, realized by the Italian artist and one of the fathers of the modern Italian poster art, Leopoldo Metlicovitz (Trieste, 1868 - Ponte Lambro, 1944) and printed around 1900 by G. Ricordi and C. Milano, Milan. Monogrammed on plate on the right margin at the center. A fashionable vintage Art Nouveau advertising poster of the Italian magazine "La Sera" in excellent condition except for two abrasions of the paper on the lower corners of the sheet and a minor rip on the higher left margin. These defetcs do not affect the image. This Modern original poster shows the Metlicovitz's full mastery of the artistic medium, has the dignity of an object of art to collect and could be a colorful piece for your sophisticated home furniture. Leopoldo Metlicovitz (Trieste, 1868 - Ponte Lambro, 1944) The Italian painter, illustrator, theatrical and advertising scenographer is considered one of the precursors of Futurism and, together with Leonetto Cappiello, Adolf Hohenstein, Giovanni Maria Mataloni and Marcello Dudovich, one of the fathers of modern Italian poster art. He began his artistic career at the age of fourteen working as an apprentice in a typography in Udine, where he learned the technique of lithography. Here he is noticed by Giulio Ricordi, owner of the namesake Officine Grafiche, who invites him to Milan to work as a lithographer. In 1892, after collaborating with Tensi, a photographic product company, he returned to Ricordi as technical director. At the same time, he entered the theatrical environment and began his career as a set designer and costume designer at La Scala. The Mele di Napoli tailoring company entrusted him with the task of advertising his clothes and in 1906, on the occasion of the great Universal Exposition in Milan, he won the competition for the fair poster, establishing himself also as a poster artist and then collaborating with several magazines as an illustrator. For Ricordi he takes care of the illustrations of calendars, opera librettos, postcards. Other famous images created by him are those for the poster of the film Cabiria, a blockbuster of the silent film scripted by Gabriele D'Annunzio, and the trademark that is still used today by the Brothers Branca Distilleries, producers of Fernet Branca...
