    CHANTIER HOUILLER — JEAN D’YLEN — 1924

    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.

    Cigale, Theatre de l’Opera-Comique
    Artist: Maurice Leloir
    Date: 1904

    In this elegant 1904 poster for the French ballet Cigale, artist Maurice Leloir captures the frigid fate of one of the story’s central figures with remarkable sensitivity. The ballet, written by Henri Cain and set to music by the celebrated composer Jules Massenet, was performed at the Théâtre de l’Opéra-Comique in Paris. Leloir’s lithograph was printed by Imp. Devambez, one of the foremost Parisian art printers of the early 20th century. The poster announced the première of Massenet’s Cigale—a divertissement-ballet evoking the poetic melancholy and grace typical of fin-de-siècle French theater.

  • Citizen Kane  Orson Welles (Quarto Potere) — 1960 - Italian re-release

    Citizen Kane Orson Welles (Quarto Potere) — 1960 – Italian re-release

    $ 2,000

    Quarto Potere (Citizen Kane) — Anonymous — 1958 – Orson Welles

    Original Italian 4-foglio poster for Quarto Potere, the Italian release title of Citizen Kane, directed by and starring Orson Welles, with Joseph Cotten, Dorothy Comingore, and Agnes Moorehead. Issued by Titanus for the Italian distribution of the film.

    Citizen Kane (1941) is widely regarded as one of the most important films ever made, celebrated for its groundbreaking narrative structure, deep-focus cinematography, and enduring influence on modern filmmaking. The Italian title Quarto Potere (“The Fourth Power”) reflects the film’s central theme—the power and influence of the press.

    This striking Italian design presents a bold, painterly interpretation of Charles Foster Kane in a political setting, reinforcing the film’s exploration of ambition, authority, and public image. Italian posters from this period are particularly admired for their distinctive artistic approach, often differing significantly from American designs.

    Printed in the large and imposing 4-foglio format, this poster was produced in limited quantities for theatrical display and was not intended to survive. As a result, examples of this size are scarce today.

    This 1958 Titanus issue is very rare, especially in such well-preserved condition, and is seldom encountered on the market.

  • Confetti Toulouse Lautrec

    Confetti by Henri de Toulouse Lautrec for Les Affiche Etrangeres Chaix Imprimerie 1897 stone lithograph

    $ 1,650

    Confetti by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec for Les Affiches Étrangères, Chaix Imprimerie, 1897 (Stone Lithograph)

    Jules Chéret created Les Affiches Étrangères at the Chaix Imprimerie to showcase international poster artists. His goal was to offer the public a book featuring 65 color plates and numerous black-and-white illustrations. The poster-collecting craze that began in France in 1895 increased demand for this collection. As a result, the book highlighted famous posters from artists outside France. Each artist approved their plate, and Chaix Imprimerie produced them using stone lithography in 1897. The collection includes works by Toulouse-Lautrec, Mucha, Chéret, and others. This lithograph is an opportunity to own an original piece created during Lautrec’s lifetime with his consent. Today, museums worldwide feature this work.

    Toulouse-Lautrec designed the Confetti poster in 1894 as a lively advertisement for Palais de la Nouveauté, a Parisian company selling confetti. During that time, confetti was a popular item for carnival season and festive events.

    This plate appears in Les Affiches Étrangères because, although Lautrec was a French artist, he designed the poster for a London-based company that produced confetti for festivals.
