Friday’s ad is for Bière Du Fort-Carré, from around 1900. From the late 1800s until the 1940s, poster art really came into its own, and in Europe a lot of really cool posters, many of them for breweries, were produced. This poster is for Brasserie de Fort-Carré, in Saint-Dizier, France. It was founded in 1796. They were bought out in 1953, and the brewery was closed, although more recently a new company is bringing it back. This poster was created by Italian and French artist Leonetto Cappiello. It depicts French king Francis I in 1544 during a historical incident during a siege led by the Spanish and Bavarian troops of Spanish rival Charles V.

In later years, the poster was also used to create a sign for the brewery.

Sunday’s ad is for Bières La Semeuse, from 1900. From the late 1800s until the 1940s, poster art really came into its own, and in Europe a lot of really cool posters, many of them for breweries, were produced. This poster is for possibly a brewery in Alsace region of France, maybe Strasbourg, but I’m not sure. La Semeuse means “The Sower” and was a “French pictorial allegory invented by Oscar Roty around 1887, presenting a young woman wearing a Phrygian cap sowing seeds at sunrise, and who has become over time one of the symbols of the French Republic,” of which this seems to be at least based on that.
