Monday’s ad is for Grande Brasserie Van Velsen, from 1896. From the late 1800s until the 1980s, poster art really came into its own, and in Europe a lot of really cool posters, many of them for breweries, were produced. I’ve been posting vintage European posters all last year, and will continue to do so in 2020. This poster was for Grande Brasserie Van Velsen, which appears to be a brewery in Bornhem (today spelled “Bornem“), “a municipality located in the Belgian province of Antwerp. The poster was created by Belgian graphic artist Armand Rassenfosse.
