Description

VINCENT, Rene (1879 – 1936). Two posters. Circa 1920s. Two colour lithograph posters of whimsical illustrations by Vincent, one showing two girls on a diving board, the other showing a young girl playing as a nurse attending to a boy with an alarming looking syringe!

René Vincent was a French illustrator who was active in the 1920s-1930s. He worked in the Art Deco style and became famous for his poster designs. He was influential in the Art Deco movement in the period between the two world wars and illustrations helped define advertising in the 20th century.

Vincent was born in 1879 in Bordeaux, France, the son of, novelist Charles Vincent. His older brother was a portrait painter. Vincent studied at the art school, Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris. This is when he started to illustrate books to earn money. It was at this time he changed his studies from architecture to graphic arts.

Vincent was an illustrator for La Vie Parisienne, L’Illustration and Fantiso. When he went to the

United States, he worked for the Saturday Evening

Post and Harper’s Bazaar. Most of his contributions to these magazines were fashion illustrations. When he came back to France, he created a plethora of advertisements for Bugatti, Peugeot, Michelin, and Shell Oil Company. Vincent was a great lover of cars, so as a result he was one of the first French citizens to have a driver’s license and also one of the first Parisians to have a garage built onto his house. Vincent had a particular design style of distorting perspective and dynamism.

Art Deco lithograph posters emerged during the 1920s and 1930s, reflecting a modernist aesthetic characterised by sleek lines, geometric forms, and vibrant colour palettes. Lithography was the primary commercial printing technique used to produce these promotional and decorative artworks for mass audiences.

These pieces are typically produced using the planographic printing process of lithography on quality paper stocks, often framed in period wood or metal mouldings. The inks used in authentic vintage prints often exhibit specific pigment separations and tonal depths characteristic of mid-20th-century presses.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the paper stock under magnification to detect dot matrices indicative of modern digital printing versus the flat, continuous tones or distinct lithographic ink layering of vintage pieces. Additionally, inspecting for period-appropriate framing, paper age toning, and publisher marks aids in verification.

These graphic prints pair effectively with minimalist or mid-century modern interiors, serving as striking focal points on neutral walls. Framing them with conservation-grade materials ensures they complement both contemporary and historical design schemes.

To prevent fading and paper degradation, vintage prints must be displayed away from direct sunlight and high humidity. Utilizing UV-filtering glass and acid-free backing boards during framing is essential for long-term preservation.
