Original vintage French advertising poster for Ryst Armagnac by Raymond Savignac (1907–2002). Savignac was one of the most recognized French poster artists of the 20th century and worked early in his career under the influence of the celebrated designer A. M. Cassandre before developing his own distinctive graphic style. His work is known for its clarity of design, effective simplicity, and subtle humor, characteristics that made his advertising imagery highly recognizable.
This poster was created to promote Ryst Armagnac. Armagnac is a traditional French brandy produced in the Gascony region in southwest France, notably in the departments of Gers, Landes, and Lot-et-Garonne. The RYST-DUPEYRON house was founded in 1905 by distiller Joseph Dupeyron to produce and market Armagnac from the region. Savignac’s work for advertising campaigns has become part of the visual heritage of French commercial art.
This is an original printing.

Theatre de l’opera Carnaval by Cheret for Les Affiches Illustrees 1894
Original stone-lithograph plate printed circa 1896 at Imprimerie Chaix (Paris) for Les Affiches Illustrées. This reduced-format lithograph reproduces Jules Chéret’s exuberant poster for the 1892 Paris Carnival at the Théâtre de l’Opéra.
The annual Opéra masquerade balls were among the most anticipated events of Belle Époque Paris, drawing fashionable crowds for evenings of music, dance, and masked revelry. Chéret’s design captures the carnival’s spirit of joy and festivity: a central female figure in motion, surrounded by swirling ribbons and celebratory text, rendered in his signature palette of vivid reds, yellows, and blues. As with many of his works, Chéret conveys both the elegance and the playful abandon of Parisian nightlife in the 1890s.
Les Affiches Illustrées (1896–1899) was a pioneering collector’s journal, presenting reduced-format lithographs of important contemporary posters. Produced under Chéret’s supervision at the Chaix atelier, each plate replicated the technique of the original affiche, allowing subscribers to own authentic Belle Époque poster art in a more practical format.
