Historical context

Henri Meunier produced this chromolithograph (poster) in 1895. The piece is held by Bibliothèque nationale de France (Gallica) and is in the public domain under Public Domain; we sourced the file from the institution’s open-access program and prepared it for archival printing.

On the category. Belle Époque and Art Nouveau commercial poster art ran on the same chromolithographic presses that produced the era’s coffee, tea, and tobacco advertising. The brand may be forgotten; the poster is what survives.

The master file is 6243 × 4269 pixels. At 300 DPI it prints clean at approximately 20 inches on the long edge before any visible loss; below that scale all three included print sizes hold cleanly.
