The design features one of Cappiello's signature works, which often paired whimsical, attention-grabbing characters with sleek, minimalist backgrounds, effectively drawing the viewer's eye and making them unforgettable. Leonetto Cappiello (1875–1942), an Italian-French artist, redefined poster art in the early 20th century with his innovative and modern approach. Unlike his contemporaries, who leaned heavily on intricate detail and allegorical themes, Cappiello's style was bold and forward-thinking. He employed vivid, contrasting colors and playful imagery that left a lasting impression on viewers—a technique that was groundbreaking in the emerging advertising industry. His work was dynamic, with a focus on simplicity and impact, paving the way for the modern methods of branding and advertising we see today. Cappiello created over 530 posters during his illustrious career, promoting everything from alcoholic beverages (like the iconic Maurin Quina green devil design) to luxury goods, theatres, and transportation. His influence on poster art cannot be overstated; his designs set the standard for advertising visuals and are still celebrated for their artistic and commercial brilliance.
