Original French advertising poster for Bonal Gentiane Quina designed by A.M. Cassandre. This example is the rarer pink background version of the design. The composition features a stylized figure drinking Bonal, with the liquid transforming into pink stars within the body. A key appears over the stomach, visually suggesting the idea promoted by the product: Bonal “opens the appetite.” The bold geometry and simplified forms are characteristic of Cassandre’s modernist approach to poster design.
Adolphe Mouron Cassandre (1901–1968) was one of the most important commercial artists of the twentieth century. A poster designer, painter, lithographer, and creator of typefaces, he combined influences from avant-garde movements such as Cubism, Surrealism, and Neue Sachlichkeit with the demands of commercial advertising. His work helped define the modern graphic language of the interwar period.

Original French advertising poster for Chantier Houiller designed by Jean D’Ylen and printed in Paris by Vercasson in 1924. The composition features a brightly dressed jester riding a coal cart, rendered in vivid colors against a dark background. Dressed in yellow with arms spread wide, the figure humorously recalls the canary traditionally used in coal mines to warn miners of dangerous gases. The playful imagery and strong contrast of colors are characteristic of the lively advertising style of the period.
Jean Paul Beguin (1886–1938), known professionally as Jean D’Ylen, was one of the leading French advertising artists of the early twentieth century. His posters are known for their striking use of primary colors, bold figures, and theatrical compositions. The influence of Leonetto Cappiello is evident in the dramatic dark backgrounds and animated figures that appear to float within the design. D’Ylen began his career as a jewelry designer before becoming an advertising illustrator for the Paris publishing house Vercasson. After Cappiello left the firm in 1916, D’Ylen became one of its principal poster artists, producing many memorable designs of the 1920s.
