Art and labels
The owner, wanting to give this treasure a greater collectible value, decided to use the family's collection of six posters for the creation of labels. These posters were made in the 1940s and 1950s by
Hervé Morvan (1917-1980) and Raymond Savignac (1907-2002), who are well-known French illustrators and graphic designers.
The act of giving new life to history, to reveal extraordinary meaning.
Raymond Savignac (1907-2002)
"The man who makes the walls smile and the paper reflect", Raymond Savignac, born in 1907 in Paris, is undoubtedly one of the most famous French poster artists, who revolutionized the post-war genre. With more than 600 advertising posters produced, he marked the history of the poster with his poetry, his sense of shortcut and his joyful humor. His vast works are now part of the French cultural heritage, and are characterized by an exuberant use of color, surreal scenes in a typically French style, always with a sense of humor.
Herve Morvan (1917-1980)
Hervé Morvan, born in 1917 in Plougastel-Daoulas (Brittany), is a French illustrator and poster designer. Author of more than 150 film posters, Hervé Morvan marks the revival of this art after the Second World War. In 1946, he took part in the cinema poster exhibition at the Cinémathèque française. With his dynamic, bold and visually unique posters, he has gained an international reputation. His works combine bold colors and passionate lines that form his unique style.
A journey through time.
