An original French advertising poster for Gonzenbach natural mineral water, sourced from Soultzbach-les-Bains in Alsace, France.

Featuring a wonderfully eccentric gentleman in a tall black hat and spectacles embracing an oversized bottle of mineral water, the design combines bold geometric illustration with striking typography and a rich palette of mustard yellow, orange, green and black.

The poster reflects a period when mineral waters were widely promoted for their perceived health benefits, with Gonzenbach advertised as a remedy for anaemia and digestive complaints.
