1991 original advertising poster for Coco by Chanel - Vanessa Paradis

1991

This striking 1982 vintage poster, designed by Razzia, was created to promote the Paris Posters exhibition at the Musée de l’Affiche et de la Publicité during the summer (Été 82). Featuring a bold and graphic collage-style composition, the artwork embodies the dynamic energy of 1980s design. Razzia, a renowned French graphic artist, is celebrated for his iconic Art Deco-inspired poster designs with a modern twist. In this piece, he juxtaposes a stylized black-and-white Eiffel Tower, a monochrome portrait of a woman, and an accordion transformed into the Arc de Triomphe, all set against a dramatic black background with vivid color accents. The use of cutout-style imagery and neon-inspired typography reflects the postmodern aesthetic of the early 1980s, capturing the bold creativity of the era. The vibrant contrast of yellow, red, and blue highlights adds to the poster’s visual impact, making it a standout example of contemporary French graphic design. A rare and collectible piece, this original Razzia poster...

Created for the prestigious Grand Prix de Paris held at Longchamp Racecourse on 25 June 1989, this original poster by Razzia (Gérard Courbouleix-Dénériaz) perfectly encapsulates the elegance, luxury and timeless sophistication associated with both Louis Vuitton and the world of thoroughbred racing. Rather than depicting the excitement of the race itself, Razzia offers an unexpected and refined composition. Seen from behind, a ceremonial guardsman in a scarlet tunic and towering bearskin cap gazes across the immaculate lawns of Longchamp towards the distant racecourse. The restrained perspective creates an atmosphere of anticipation and quiet grandeur, allowing the viewer to become a participant in the spectacle rather than merely an observer. The artist's characteristic Art Deco-inspired style is unmistakable. Large areas of luminous colour, simplified forms and impeccable composition evoke the elegance of 1930s fashion illustration while remaining thoroughly contemporary. The vast blue sky, immaculate green turf and bold silhouette of the guardsman create a striking balance between monumentality and minimalism. Throughout the 1980s, Louis Vuitton commissioned Razzia to create a series of iconic posters celebrating travel, sporting events and the maison's enduring connection to refinement and the French art de vivre. His sophisticated visual language became closely associated with the brand, helping redefine luxury advertising through imagery that favoured atmosphere and storytelling over overt commercialism. The Grand Prix de Paris, first contested in 1863, remains one of France's most prestigious horse races. Hosted at the historic Hippodrome de Longchamp, it has long attracted an international audience of racing enthusiasts, collectors and members of high society. Louis Vuitton's sponsorship further reinforced the event's reputation as a celebration of elegance, craftsmanship and tradition. One particularly charming detail of this composition is the reference at the bottom of the poster announcing the participation of Her Majesty The Queen of England's Irish Guards Band, adding an additional ceremonial dimension and subtly linking French sporting prestige with British pageantry. Today, Razzia's original Louis Vuitton posters...
