Description from the seller
Fascinating original GITANES Cigarettes advertising poster, illustrated by the famous French artist René Vincent, one of the most important illustrators of the early 20th century, known for his elegant and dynamic style linked to Art Deco and period advertising graphics.
The subject depicts the celebrated dancing female figure, an iconic symbol of the Gitanes brand, rendered with fluid lines and strong color contrast.
The composition is extremely scenographic: the movement of the figure, together with the dark silhouette and the color details, creates an image with great visual impact and recognizability.
The lot includes:
• Poster Gitanes
• Signature in print “René Vincent” visible
• Editorial indication: ADAGP Paris 1995
• Print produced by Imprimerie St. Martin – Paris
Measurements:
• approximately 54 x 40 cm
Conditions:
• generally good condition
• present evident signs of aging, light creases, small surface marks and slight waviness of the paper
• overall well preserved and with graphics still very vivid and legible
René Vincent is considered one of the masters of French advertising illustration, active between the 1920s and 1940s, author of iconic posters for automobiles, fashion, and consumer products. His works are today highly sought after by collectors for elegance, modernity, and historical value.
An iconic and highly decorative poster, perfect for collectors of advertising posters or for rooms with a vintage and retro taste.
