Printed by Imprimerie, Paris, this large-format poster (39 x 55 inches) reflects the rich visual language of late 19th-century French advertising. The era was defined by advances in lithographic printing, allowing for fine detailing, subtle shading, and vibrant color saturation. Dental products such as Dentifrices Roi were often positioned as luxury goods, their advertising aimed at the growing urban middle class.
Mounted on linen for preservation, the poster remains in excellent condition, retaining its original detail and color quality more than a century later.
