The artwork named “Maurin Quina,” created by the artist Leonetto Cappiello in 1906, belongs to the Art Nouveau (Modern) movement. It is categorized primarily as an advertisement poster. The artwork features a striking depiction of a green devilish figure holding a bottle, set against a stark black background which serves to emphasize its vividness and allure. The bold yellow text at the bottom of the artwork prominently displays the product name “Maurin Quina” along with its origin, “Le Puy, France,” creating a compelling visual that is both eye-catching and evocative. The figure’s mischievous posture and the dramatic lighting add to the artwork’s dynamic and engaging nature, embodying the essence of early 20th-century advertising art.
