Inscriptions / brands: monogram, bottom right: 'j. T. '. Description: the inscription makes it clear that it concerns salad oil, as do the bottles of salad oil on either side of the text. Below it is the crowned coat of arms of the factory, with a decorative area with peanuts on the left. The majority of the poster is taken up by two graceful female figures with long hair. One sits and makes lettuce in a large container; the other has his gaze and hands raised. The wavy, rhythmic interplay of lines with which the women's hair fills the picture surface made such an impression that art nouveau owes its nickname 'salad oil style' to this poster. Manufacture.
