Original vintage advertising poster for Kinagin, created by Eugène Patkévitch and printed by MARSENS. This striking composition promotes the Kinagin beverage—a mix of gin, vermouth, and quinine—reflecting the popular aperitif culture of the period.
The design features bold graphic elements characteristic of early 20th-century European advertising, with strong color contrasts and a refined sense of composition typical of Patkévitch’s work. Posters for aperitifs and quinine-based drinks were widely produced during this era, often emphasizing both elegance and the perceived health benefits of such beverages.
Printed as a lithograph, this piece exemplifies the quality and visual impact of classic poster printing techniques. Large-format examples such as this were intended for prominent display and are increasingly difficult to find today, particularly in well-preserved condition.

Lithographic plate reproducing the poster design Liebigby Leopoldo Metlicovitz, issued as part of the well-known Ricordi Portfolio. This series presented a selection of important poster designs printed by the Ricordi publishing house during the height of the Italian poster movement between the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The portfolio gathered together small-format reproductions of these works and was distributed internationally in the early twentieth century.
Casa Ricordi of Milan, originally a music publisher closely associated with the Italian opera world, developed a major lithographic printing workshop in the late nineteenth century. Through its printing department the firm produced posters for music, theatre, and commercial clients and became a central force in the development of the Italian poster. The artists working with Ricordi helped define the Italian version of Art Nouveau, often referred to as Stile Liberty.
Leopoldo Metlicovitz (1868–1944) was one of the principal designers associated with Ricordi. His posters and illustrations are recognized for their elegant compositions and refined color work, and he contributed numerous designs for theatre, publishing, and advertising.
