O' GALOP (Marius “ROSSILLON”). Nunc est Bidendum. Cheers. Th - Lot 94
O' GALOP (Marius “ROSSILLON”). Nunc est Bidendum. Cheers. The Michelin tire clears the hurdle. 1898. Lithographic poster. Printed by L. Revon & Cie, Paris. Mounted on canvas (original mounting), in fairly good condition: slight foxing, significant water stain in the lower part of the image, faded colors; the rest of the image remains very clean; small tears and missing sections in the margins have been restored. 160 x 119 cm Bibliography: Kléber Rossillon. Marius Rossillon, known as O’Galop. The Poster Artist of Bibendum. 1867–1946. Catalog of the exhibition held in Sarlat from June 28 to September 23, 1998. Page 14: variation in the text. Laurence Prod’Homme. *Collectionneur d’Affiches*. Editions Apogée. Musée de Bretagne. 1996. Page 243: “Bibendum, the allegorical character representing the product—the tire—is undoubtedly the most famous example in the history of advertising, and one of the most enduring, since in 1998 he will be a very much alive centenarian.”
