I'm all-happy cause among the bounty of things I bought Sunday at the vintage market of Piazzola sul Brenta there are some old advertising drawn by René Gruau (1909 - 2004), renowned advertising illustrator of XX century. Gruau became one of the best known and favorite fashion illustrator of the haute couture world during the 1940s and 50s. Elegance, grace and luxury characterise the work of "the man who loved woman" as called by his peers.
“Elegance is aura (…) it is composed of will and knowing, of grace, sophistication, perfection and distinction”. G*
Can't wait to frame them and hang it up on my room. Here are some pictures of the old advertising.
