The artwork titled “Plm Exposition Monaco” was created by artist Leonetto Cappiello in the year 1920. This piece belongs to the Art Nouveau (Modern) movement and falls under the genre of poster advertisement.
The artwork features a vibrant and dynamic composition. At its center, a woman in a flowing yellow dress stands gracefully amidst a stunning seascape backdrop. The woman appears to be in motion, scattering flowers with one hand, while her other hand holds up a massive, billowing red and white banner, possibly representing the flag of Monaco. The waves of the sea reflect shades of blue and yellow, creating a vivid contrast with the woman’s dress and the flag. Above her, the text “Exposition de Monaco 1920” is prominently displayed, indicating the event for which this poster was designed. The overall style and color scheme are characteristic of the Art Nouveau movement, with an emphasis on fluid lines, bold colors, and romantic imagery.
