CHAMPAGNE CASTELLANE by Leonetto Cappiello 1980
In 1980, Champagne Castellane reissued a special commemorative series of its most famous poster designs to celebrate its advertising legacy. This smaller-format edition (16 x 24 inches) was printed directly by Castellane in France using offset lithography and faithfully reproduces the original design by Leonetto Cappiello. The poster is in excellent condition, mounted on quality paper, and was part of the official limited promotional campaign issued by the champagne house.
Description and History
Leonetto Cappiello (1875–1942) was one of the most celebrated poster artists of the early 20th century, often called the father of modern advertising. Known for his bold colors and whimsical compositions, Cappiello revolutionized commercial art by replacing the elaborate Art Nouveau style with striking, simplified imagery focused on single, memorable figures.
Cappiello’s Champagne de Castellane poster design originally dates from the early 20th century and features his trademark dynamic energy—a joyful, celebratory spirit perfectly suited to the brand’s refined image. Castellane, one of France’s oldest Champagne houses founded in Épernay in 1895, became renowned for its distinctive red diagonal stripe label and its association with French elegance and festivity.
The 1980 reissue by Castellane served both as a tribute to the golden age of poster art and as an homage to Cappiello’s enduring influence on advertising and design.

This rare and iconic poster by Leonetto Cappiello was created for Bitter Campari in Italy. In excellent condition, it features vibrant colors and no restorations, a true testament to its preservation. This specific version is particularly rare, printed on heavier paper with a light varnish. Advertisers like Campari used such high-quality materials to ensure the poster’s durability, allowing it to endure outdoor display with greater resilience.
Known as the “Spiritello,” the poster depicts a pierrot clown wrapped in an orange peel, symbolizing the zest and vibrancy of Campari. This design is widely regarded as the most famous and iconic image created for Campari, and one of the most influential works by Cappiello.
Campari, an iconic Italian aperitif, has long been celebrated for its creative advertising. This poster is a prime example of the brand’s innovative approach and the golden age of Italian advertising. For collectors, it represents a rare opportunity to own a piece of advertising history, blending artistry, culture, and timeless appeal.
