In 1906, Italian artist Leonetto Cappiello created the famous artwork of a green devil as the mascot/label for the drink, and he painted wonderful art of the green devil de-corking a bottle while floating in air against a dark background. Soon after that art was used on several different 1906 French posters (the same basic image, but on different sizes of posters), the alcoholic beverage it advertised went out of production. However, this wonderful art was reproduced in many ways over the years, and it is likely Cappiello's most famous poster ever (he created over 2,000 different posters during his life). Artist: Leonetto Cappiello Important Added Info: Note that this is a 1998 commercial poster which is a reproduction of the 1906 poster with this image. It was previously reproduced many other times, but this is a 1998 38" x 52" Italian commercial poster, so please bid on the poster knowing that this is what it is. Condition: very good.
