Leonetto CAPPIELLO (1875-1942) VIG, circa 1909 Mixed media. Mounted on canvas. Signed lower right. (Stains. Minor rubbing). 145 x 96 cm Bibliography : Rennert, p. 71, no. 58. One of the first in a very long series of posters Cappiello produced for the producers of port, a very popular beverage at the time. He plays on the surprise effect: a very muscular, very redheaded person, right down to her clothing, drinks from a barrel she's holding at arm's length. Realism be damned! This image catches the eye, and that's the point.
