The timeless tale of "La Belle et la Bête" has captivated audiences for centuries, with its origins dating back to Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve's 1740 novel. In 1946, the visionary filmmaker Jean Cocteau brought this beloved story to life in his first feature film adaptation. His cinematic masterpiece enchanted viewers with its breathtaking sets, lavish costumes, and groundbreaking visual effects. The film, starring Jean Marais and Josette Day, has since become a cherished gem of French cinema, with its enduring legacy living on in both animation and live-action adaptations. In 2017, the tale was reimagined once again in a live-action format. However, in the realm of film poster art, the 1951 original second edition by Jean-Denis Malclès stands as a true work of art. Jean-Denis Malclès, an accomplished French artist, was known for his expertise in various artistic mediums. From opera set designs to book illustrations, his passion for painting shone through. His lifelong friend and renowned filmmaker, Jean Cocteau, commissioned Malclès to create a poster that would capture the essence of his fantasy romance film, "La Belle et la Bête." Malclès' foray into the world of film poster design was a departure from his usual artistic pursuits, but it resulted in a work of sheer magnificence. Malclès' poster for "La Belle et la Bête" is nothing short of magnificent. It exquisitely captures the magical and surreal imagery that defines the film. The central imagery depicts a stunning representation of Belle and the Beast, with the Beast in a regal pose as Belle gently embraces him. The use of color, shadow, and light in the poster evokes the enchanting atmosphere of the film. It is a true testament to Malclès' ability to convey complex emotions and themes with simplicity and elegance, much like the film itself. Jean-Denis Malclès' poster for "La Belle et la Bête" is widely regarded as one of the most iconic and definitive film posters of the 20th century. Its ability to capture the essence of Cocteau's cinematic masterpiece while retaining its artistic integrity is nothing short of remarkable. The poster has endured through the decades and remains a testament to the enduring power of art to evoke the magic of cinema. In conclusion, Jean-Denis Malclès' 1951 original second edition movie poster for "La Belle et la Bête" is a testament to the everlasting appeal of both the film and the story. Malclès' exceptional artistic talent was instrumental in creating a work of art that transcends the boundaries of mere film promotion...

Image dimensions: 27.4x20 cm. Sunlight Sapone 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). Printed by Officine Ricordi, Milan in 19o0, the advertising manifesto for "Sunlight Sapone" ( Sunlight Soap) representing two women washing their clothes, is inspired by the Art Nouveau graphics taste. Indeed Metlicovitz, through the Ricordi, realized much advertising posters and manifestoes for many emerging companies such as Pirelli, Ettore Moretti, Magazzini Mele in Naples, relied with his talented pencil. The atmosphere is that of the Liberty, where the sensuality of the female body appears flat and emptied and turns into a mere twisted black contoruring graphic line. The colors are enameled, the languid glances, the fixed smiles, veined by an almost imperceptible underground decadence that is a prelude to the First World War. This is a wonderful vintage advertising poster, with the inscriptions printed on lower margin, under the image: "L. Metlicovitz / Off. G. Ricordi and C. Milano / 100 x 200. In excellent conditions. This modern original poster shows the vintage Art Nouveau taste and the Metlicovitz's full mastery of the artistic medium, has the dignity of an object of art to collect and could be a colorful and fashionable 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...

Parasite: “There’s a lot to unpack in Bong Joon Ho's PARASITE. It asks many questions and doesn’t give us comforting answers. For the poster, I wanted to capture that sense of discomfort and unease. A seemingly picture-perfect moment between the happily rich Parks completely oblivious to what’s unfolding around them, and the Kim family relegated to the shadows struggling with their own complex feelings toward such wealth and privilege. It’s a timely film, groundbreaking for a handful of reasons, and difficult to define. My hope is the poster art is just as mesmerizing and ambiguous as the film itself.” - Rory Kurtz...

Walter Schnackenberg’s style changed several times during his long and successful career. Having studied in Munich, the artist traveled often to Paris where he fell under the spell of the Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec’s colorful and sensuous posters depicting theatrical and decadent subjects. Schnackenberg became a regular contributor of similar compositions to the German magazines Jugend and Simplicissimus before devoting himself to the design of stage scenery and costumes. In the artist’s theatrical work, his mastery of form, ornamentation, and Orientalism became increasingly evident. He excelled at combining fluid Art Nouveau outlines, with spiky Expressionist passages, and the postures and patterns of the mysterious East. In his later years, Schnackenberg explored the unconscious, using surreal subject matter and paler colors that plainly portrayed dreams and visions, some imbued with political connotations. His drawings, illustrations, folio prints, and posters are highly sought today for their exceedingly imaginative qualities, enchanting subject matter, and arresting use of color. SCHNACKENBERG: KOSTUME, PLAKATE UND DEKORATIONEN, a cardboard bound art book consisting of 43 prints of work by Walter Schnackenberg, 30 of which are color lithographs that are signed and some are titled and dated in the plate, as well as black and white prints and photographs with accompanying text by Oskar Bie; lithographs printed at Kunstanstalt Oskar Consee in Munich, other images printed by Gesellschaft Pick & Co. in Munich, the text and cover with color images by Schnackenberg front and verso printed by R. Oldenbourg in Munich; published by Musarion Verlag, Munich, 1920. The majority of Walter Schnackenberg’s artistic output was destroyed by bomb attacks in Munich in 1944. The highly publicized 2013 auction in New York of the recovered pre-war poster collection once belonging to German poster aficionado, Hans Sachs has reintroduced the world to Walter Schnackenberg’s graphic genius and priceless ephemeral art from a lost era. Besides the museum world, designer Karl Lagerfeld is one of the most prodigious collectors of Schnackenberg. Flipping through the pages of Kostume, Plakate und Dekorationen, it becomes quite clear that Schnackenberg’s collection is ground zero at the crossroads of early modern fashion where the cult of celebrity meets up with dance, music, theater and cabaret, film and the graphic medium. Berlin and Munich under Germany’s Weimar Republic in the first quarter of the 20th century produced just the atmosphere to feed this burgeoning industry. Rising inflation sparked a recklessness to live large for the moment and heightened a desire for escapism. An influx of Indian and East Asian dancers and musicians added to the artsy bohemian cultural mix. A new decadence and tolerance resulted. Film boldly featured provocative subject matter. Cabarets became popular venues giving rise to the demi-monde in which people from all social stations mixed more freely in a thriving underground economy and culture where there was a blurring of boundaries and of social codes. Noted art historian and cultural doyen, Oskar Bie astutely observes in his introduction to Schnackenberg’s publication that what unites the images is fantasy and advertisement. Schnackenberg uses the eye as an instrument to brilliantly construct and convey this double message. His personages never directly confront the viewer. Their eyes gaze off in the distance like those of the screenplayer and film star Hedamaria Scholz in Schnackenberg’s “Die Rodelhexe” movie poster. Their eyes follow the path of a dance composition or become a transfixed and ogling male gaze such as the iconic 1911 Odeon Casino...
