Leonetto Cappiello




Often called 'the father of modern advertising' Leonetto Cappiello was a poster designer in France and part of the Art Nouveau movement. His posters usually contained brightly colored figures or the product being advertised portrayed with a contrasting background. I found his work interesting because they're all very impressive paintings, and his style of portraying his products mascots very clever. The portray the character of the company/products they're advertising very well.
