Vintage kitchen poster

A vintage kitchen poster is a graphic or artistic creation that evokes the style, aesthetic and retro spirit characteristic of past eras, generally from the 1890s to the 1970s. This type of poster is inspired by design, colors , popular typographies and motifs from these historical periods and proves to be a most aesthetic interior decoration.

We use the term vintage kitchen poster for all posters and posters which refer to advertising posters from the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century extolling the merits of consumer products (pasta, biscuits, chocolate and cocoa, etc.). ..) and other drinks (coffee, spring water, syrups, etc.).

This period marks the appearance of famous brands which will make a lasting place in the minds of the consumer: LU biscuits , Suchard or Poulain chocolates , the famous Laughing Cow, Maggi broths , Puget oil , waters Perrier sparkling drinks , Orangina drinks and many others. All these brands that we know today and which often remind us of our childhood, were born towards the end of the 19th century and took off at the beginning of the 20th century.

The use of posters is then the main advertising medium . Brands will therefore call on artists to create advertising posters . One of the most famous poster artists of the time was the Franco-Italian Leonetto Cappiello who had an extremely prolific career (more than 1000 posters in his career from 1899 to 1942). This artist has an airy style, a lively line, uses color cheerfully and demonstrates a boundless imagination. We owe many “classics” to Leonetto Cappiello: the Poulain Orange poster , the Huile Lesieur poster , the Café Martin poster , the Suchard poster and many others. The originals of these posters are today considered true works of art and can sell for several thousand euros.

The kitchen is a central room in your home which is intended to be quite functional - all the elements present are intended either to prepare meals or to store food. It is therefore often a room that we neglect in terms of decoration and which can sometimes turn out to be boring.

Vintage kitchen posters and posters allow you to quickly add a touch of original and authentic decor to the kitchen of your house or apartment . You can also find these posters in the dining room . It is an effective way to personalize your decoration and attract the eye of the visitor who will be seduced by your ability to highlight the art of the table while remaining modern . The vintage kitchen poster is also a way to arouse the curiosity of children who do not hesitate to ask questions about these images steeped in history and which you can share with your family.

One of the characteristics of vintage kitchen posters is the freedom of tone and the omnipresent humor in the different posters and posters. Thus on this poster, Achille Mauzan depicts 3 picturesque characters: 3 judges each equipped with a very developed nasal appendage, supposed to be able to apprehend all the olfactory flavors of Bertozzi Parmezan...

What size for my retro kitchen poster?

Given the different models that we offer, but also the larger or smaller sizes, you can adjust as you wish :

• Adopt large formats to give importance and weight to a particular poster. Need to cover a wall with volume? Opt for a large format vintage poster such as Size 5 ( 60x90cm ) or a Size 6 poster ( 84x119cm corresponding to A0 format ). However, be careful with the space you have available, we tend to be surprised by the size of these formats. It is therefore advisable to carefully measure the dimensions of your wall space before placing the order.
• Medium formats allow you to find a fair balance - we find vintage posters in 40x60cm and 50x70cm.
• The small formats are more versatile and allow you to fill the small spaces in your kitchen room (worktop panels, cupboard or even fridge), we find vintage posters in 20x30cm and 30x40cm.
• Finally, combine the different formats and create a real wall gallery : in this case, it is up to you to define your composition yourself.

Finally, the choice of dressing the poster or vintage poster with a frame is a very personal choice which results from your personal taste. There are several types of frames: wooden, aluminum and different sizes: 20x30cm frame, 50x70cm frame, AO frame etc...
