ROYAL GAILLAC (1929)

A Gallant Toast to the French Art of Living Well

– Vintage Poster Reproduction –


Imagine, if you will, a Baroque cavalier mid-charge, astride a rearing warhorse, with locks of silver like powdered snow and a golden goblet held aloft—not in battle, no!—but in rapturous celebration.
This is not war.
This is “Apéritif & Vin de Dessert.”
This is Royal Gaillac.

Created in 1929 by the legendary Léonetto Cappiello, the Italian-born master of modern poster art, this work is one of his most memorable and majestic. A bold, theatrical blend of humour, elegance, and commanding colour, it captures the very joie de vivre of France between the wars—a time when art, appetite, and apéritifs reigned supreme.


🎨 A FEAST FOR THE EYES

Against a background of scarlet so bold it might’ve been squeezed from the sun itself, our hero charges forward—cloaked in ermine, brandishing a chalice, and bringing the drama of opera to your living room wall.

The contrasts are delicious:

  • The soft ivory of the steed against the deep obsidian of the rider’s attire

  • The sparkling golden drink aloft like the Holy Grail of indulgence

  • The Art Deco typography, precise and poised beneath the storm of motion above

And yet—despite the bravado—there’s wit. There’s a wink in the posture, a curl in the moustache, a sense that life is better lived at full gallop, and always with a glass in hand.


🖼️ YOUR REPRODUCTION

We’ve spared no expense to offer you this masterwork as a museum-quality reproduction, worthy of the cavaliers of culture and collectors of class:

  • Printed on premium heavyweight 200gsm semi-gloss paper

  • Silk finish – for the soft gleam of elegance without the shine of vulgarity

  • Humidity & scratch resistant – because true style must endure

  • Faithfully recreated in England – where art, after all, still matters

Whether framed in a salon, gifted to a bon vivant, or crowned above a well-stocked bar cart, Royal Gaillac belongs in your orbit.
