Pollet Et Vittet
1896
Henri Meunier’s 1896 poster is a delicious slice of Art Nouveau history, advertising the Pollet et Vittet chocolate company with undeniable elegance. Notice the woman in profile, her bright yellow dress contrasting beautifully against the warm orange background as she carefully pours steaming hot chocolate. The steam isn't just smoke; it's stylized into flowing, ribbon-like shapes, a classic Art Nouveau touch that makes the whole scene feel graceful and inviting. It’s a perfect example of how late 19th-century advertisers turned everyday treats like cocoa into high art, convincing you that this specific brand was the height of sophistication.
