Champagne Vicomte de Castellane, Épernay, 1922

Cappiello at poster scale, as the Belle Époque tips into Deco.

What

A large (161×121 cm) Cappiello lithograph for Vicomte de Castellane champagne, digitized by the Bibliothèque nationale de France at very high resolution.

Why

Champagne de Castellane (Épernay, founded 1895) still produces and trades today under the Laurent-Perrier group — sold here strictly as art history, flagged live, never as marketing.

Notice

The 1920s shift already visible — bolder, flatter, poster-scale — the decorative Belle Époque grammar tipping toward Art Deco.

“The style moved on. The house is still here.”
