About the Artwork

A Giant Cherry and an Unsteady Balance

Humor leads the composition in this Guignolet Cointreau clown poster by Eugène Ogé. The performer leans backward beneath a giant cherry, extending his hands as though trying to keep his balance. A red jacket and yellow trousers covered in little cherries repeat the fruit theme across the figure, making the product idea part of the costume.

Artwork and design

An oversized blue shadow stretches across the olive ground, exaggerating the clown's movement and adding a broad angular shape behind him. Red lettering and the glossy cherry establish the warm accents at the top. White gloves, ruffles and cap create small points of brightness, while the rounded trousers make the figure's silhouette immediately recognizable from a distance.

About this advertisement

The Maine-et-Loire departmental archives identify this Guignolet d'Angers Cointreau design as an illustration by Eugène Ogé from around 1907. The advertisement links the cherry liqueur with a theatrical balancing act. Fruit, costume and expression all reinforce the name, giving the brand a memorable comic character as well as a bold block of lettering.

Rooms and interiors

The print suits an eclectic home bar, game room or dining corner that welcomes a little theatrical humor. Olive, blue and red offer several colors to repeat in upholstery or smaller prints. Pair it with other illustrated drinks advertisements, leaving a little space around the figure so the unusual shadow and giant cherry stay easy to read.
