Additional Details: Francisco Nicolas Tamagno is an Italian painter and poster artist, active in France between 1880 and 1914. Absinthe seems to have been invented in the late eighteenth century by a doctor from Franche-Comté, a native of Doubs, Dr. Pierre Ordinaire. This doctor, also an apothecary, created a miracle cure "the Green Fairy" which was in fact an elixir of absinthe recommended to treat epilepsy, gout, worms, kidney stones, colic and headache. Around 1800, a Swiss trader bought the recipe with the idea of ??marketing it as an aperitif drink. Eugene Cusenier, seeing the success of this drink, founded a distillery of absinthe in the Doubs in 1855. But it was also in the 1860s that the first articles related to absinthe abuse (absinthism) were published. In order to overcome this bad publicity, the Cusenier family innovated by creating a so-called beneficial absinthe: Absinthe Oxygénée which this poster advertises. A man in a bar with Art Nouveau decoration, prepares the ritual of absinthe à la française: the absinthe is in the bottom of the glass, a perforated absinthe spoon filled with sugar is laid flat on the the edge of the glass, the man pours drop by drop very pure ice water onto the absinthe. Sugar is traditionally used to compensate for the bitter taste of absinthe. A woman observes the scene through a window, the man seems happy to show her this ritual.
