Original Description
Leonetto Cappiello’s Maurin Quina (1906) is a jubilant explosion of early 20th-century advertising art, capturing the vibrant energy of the Belle Époque. The poster features Cappiello’s signature "lithographic caricature" style—a dynamic, almost whimsical figure leaping against a bold, monochromatic background. Here, a mischievous green devil, the mascot of the anise-flavored apéritif Maurin Quina, grins as he pours a ruby-red drink, his exaggerated motion creating an irresistible sense of movement. The contrast between the vivid red liquid and the flat black background heightens the visual punch, a hallmark of Cappiello’s revolutionary approach to poster design. As one of his most iconic works, Maurin Quina solidified his reputation as the father of modern advertising posters, bridging Art Nouveau’s elegance with the emerging boldness of Art Deco. Its enduring appeal lies in its ability to merge commercial messaging with fine art, making it a cornerstone of graphic design history.
For a striking interior statement, Maurin Quina thrives in spaces that celebrate bold contrasts and playful sophistication. Hang it in a home bar or dining area to amplify a vintage-inspired vibe—its crimson and emerald palette pairs beautifully with velvet upholstery, brass accents, or dark wood finishes. In a modern office, it injects energy when framed in a sleek black border and placed against a neutral wall, becoming a focal point without overwhelming minimalist decor. Opt for a medium-to-large size (roughly 24x36 inches) to preserve the graphic’s impact. For cohesion, echo the poster’s colors through accessories like glassware, cushions, or a Persian rug with similar jewel tones. Whether in a loft apartment or a creative workspace, Cappiello’s devilish charm ensures this piece remains both a conversation starter and a timeless nod to design history.
