Description: Adolphe Willette "Le Cacao Van Houten" Offset Lithograph 1896Please note this is not the original stone Lithograph Poster from 1896 it is a vintage offset Lithograph printed in 1968-1970 Willette, one of the best draftsmen of the turn of the century, was the prototype of the Bohemian, which did not prevent him, after a series of ups and downs, from becoming an officer of the Legion d'Honneur. One may well ask when one looks at this poster, which does the artist full credit, what connection there could be between this allegorical scene Don Jose brandishing his knife and the village belle protected by Justice and cocoa. Publishers with an eye to business made good use of Willette's name, allowed him to paint whatever he liked and offered his work in turn to different commerical concerns. And there was always one that was prepared to insert a text. So the same poster might appear at a later date bearing the name of a hardware factory. Up for your consideration is a vintage 51+ year old Color tipped in print of Adolphe Willette "Le Cacao van Houten", an unusual find from an vintage art portfolio. The offset lithograph was printed in 1968-70, in West Germany by Vignold-Klischee, Essen. The Original Poster this print is made from was printed in 1896.
