Relskys Vodka. 1910

Lot Passed

Artist: LEONETTO CAPPIELLO (1875-1942) Size: 61 3/8 x 91 1/2 in./156 x 232.4 cm Imp. Vercasson, Paris The allure of the bearded Russian Cossack has been a close associate of vodka for centuries. Here, Cappiello creates not only a sense of movement, but also one of merriment, with the kinetic swirl of the redhead's beard, hat, and even the blue-on-black background. This is the exceptionally rare two-sheet version of the poster.

A-/ Slight creases.
