This original 1935 French poster for Liqueur Cordial Médoc lights up instantly with the bold personality that defined Art Deco advertising. Designed by Henri Monnier, the piece features a bright, heart covered character raising a glass of the ruby toned cordial in a cheerful salute. Everything about the composition aims to “réjouit le cœur,” to gladden the heart, just as the tagline promises.
Monnier leans fully into the Deco aesthetic of the thirties, using strong silhouettes, sharp outlines, and radiant color gradients to create rhythm and movement. The playful figure, part clown and part cabaret performer, captures the era’s blend of theatricality and modern design. This was a moment when French beverage posters competed for attention in cafés, train stations, and boulevards, and artists relied on humor and vibrant geometry to turn everyday products into irresistible icons.
The oversized bottle of Cordial Médoc anchors the scene while the lively character brings charm and warmth. It is a striking example of 1930s Art Deco lithography, full of energy and crafted to stand out in the bustling visual culture of its time. *Please note this poster is conservation mounted on linen.
