J. Dupont & Co., Cognac, 1900

A woman in grey stands by a small café table.

What

A poster for J. Dupont & Co. cognac, printed by F. Champenois, 66 boulevard Saint-Michel, Paris, in 1900; the BnF lists the maker as unidentified.

Why

The poster is all calm: one woman, one bottle on a tray, a pink ground and the name.

Notice

Her dress is a soft grey blue, and the red bands at top and bottom carry the lettering in white.

“A quiet cognac poster in a loud decade.”
