Bold, spirited, and full of confidence, this vintage kitchen art reproduction of Cognac Boutelleau brings the flair of classic French poster design to your walls. Designed by Leonetto Cappiello in 1917 and produced in 1919, it advertises a cognac house whose origins trace back to 1849, when Edmond Boutelleau began distilling in France's famed Cognac region. The delay between design and printing reflects the disruptions of the First World War, making this striking image a small testament to the resilience of a celebrated brand through turbulent years.
Cappiello is widely regarded as the father of the modern advertising poster, and his gift for a single arresting image is on full display here. Where earlier posters crowded the frame with detail, Cappiello favored bold color, dynamic movement, and an instantly memorable central motif that leaps off the wall. This café and bar poster carries that signature energy, distilling the warmth and prestige of fine cognac into a design that feels both period-perfect and remarkably graphic. It is a natural fit for lovers of spirits, vintage advertising, and the golden age of the poster.
Each print is produced as a faithful fine-art reproduction on museum-grade 189gsm archival matte paper using pigment inks. The matte surface is smooth and glare-free, holding Cappiello's saturated color and confident line with vivid, stable results. Because the materials are archival, this antique culinary print resists fading and yellowing, keeping its punch and depth for decades. Please note this is a newly made reproduction crafted to museum standards, not an original antique poster.
Choose from five sizes to suit your space: 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, and 24x36 inches. A smaller print adds character to a home bar shelf or a grouping, while the larger formats make a bold statement behind a bar cart, in a dining room, or across a feature wall. It is ideal as kitchen wall art, in a bar or bistro, in a home cocktail corner, or on a gallery wall of vintage drink posters, and it makes a distinctive gift for cognac and spirits enthusiasts or anyone who loves classic graphic design.
To style it, play up the poster's rich tones with warm wood, leather, and brass for a refined bar mood, or set it against a moody dark wall for maximum drama. A simple black or brass frame suits its graphic confidence, while natural wood softens the look. Paired with other Cappiello or vintage beverage posters, it anchors a bold, collected display. Your poster ships rolled in a protective tube and arrives ready to frame in standard sizes.
Raise a glass to timeless design. Whether you are outfitting a home bar, dressing a bistro, or searching for vintage food and drink wall art with real character, this Cognac Boutelleau reproduction offers a striking culinary print and lasting, gallery-grade quality worth toasting.
