EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting era of 1927 France, where the art of advertising was flourishing. The poster advertisement for Cafe Collas, designed anonymously, showcases the allure of Collas Coffee - "Pearls from the Indes, the Best of all Coffees". Rene Honore Collas, a visionary entrepreneur, founded this renowned coffee company that produced some of the finest blends in France. In an effort to expand their reach and embrace new flavors, Collas opened its doors in India during the mid-1920s. This move led to their claim as la perle des indes or "the pearl of India" - a testament to their commitment to excellence. The orientalist design featured on this poster transports us into a world filled with mystique and wonder. An elegant elephant gracefully adorns the artwork, symbolizing both strength and exoticism associated with Asia. This fusion between French sophistication and Asian influence creates an intriguing visual narrative. As we gaze upon this historic piece of artistry, we are reminded not only of its aesthetic beauty but also its historical significance. It serves as a window into a bygone era when coffee culture was at its peak in France. Through this photograph print from Universal Images Group (UIG), we can appreciate how art intertwines with history - capturing moments that transcend time itself.
