This original circa 1930 stone lithograph by the French artist Viano promotes Kina Cure, a quinquina based aperitif that belonged to a popular family of tonic wines infused with cinchona bark. These fortified wines were widely advertised in France from the late nineteenth century through the thirties, celebrated for their energizing qualities and often positioned as both a pleasure drink and a health tonic. Kina Cure distinguished itself by earning awards at the Paris Exposition of 1900, proudly displayed on the bottle label seen here.
Viano brings a lively, modern sensibility to the composition. A triumphant crowd raises their glasses in unison, their stylized forms and geometric shapes echoing the streamlined aesthetics of the interwar period. The oversized bottle, rendered with crisp detail, anchors the scene and instantly communicates the product. The bold typography, strong diagonal movement, and cheerful palette create an atmosphere of celebration and vitality, perfectly suited to a drink marketed as both invigorating and convivial.
Collectors appreciate this poster for its dynamic Art Deco influenced style and for its connection to the long tradition of quinquina advertising in France. It remains an excellent example of how French designers of the era blended graphic innovation with the exuberant spirit of early twentieth century aperitif culture. *Please note this poster is conservation mounted on linen.
