This scarce pre-awards quad captures the scale, intrigue and majesty of David Lean’s epic long before it became enshrined as one of the greatest films ever made. Striking artwork by Georges Kerfyser, whose dramatic, stylized illustration dominates the design. Kerfyser’s powerful rendering of the film’s enigmatic central figure, set against sweeping desert action and rich, atmospheric tones, gives the piece a distinctive visual authority.

Bernard Villemot

A French <a href="https://www.sothebys.com/en/buy/luxury/collectibles/vintage-poster/brand-&amp;-advertising" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">advertising poster</a> for the beverage brand Orangina, with artwork by <a href="https://www.sothebys.com/en/search?query=Bernard+Villemot&amp;pfilters.dateRange=upcoming" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Bernard Villemot</a>.<ul><li>Bernard Villemot (French, 1911–1989).</li><li>Linen backed.</li><li>This work is presented unframed.</li></ul> This Orangina Light French advertising poster by the celebrated graphic artist Bernard Villemot showcases the unmistakable elegance and refined minimalism that defined his career. With its bold curves, sun-drenched palette, and fashion-inspired silhouette, the artwork perfectly encapsulates Villemot’s ability to blend sensuality with sophisticated brand identity. The model’s dramatic hat, echoing the shape and color of a glowing orange slice, draws the eye instantly—an iconic visual metaphor for Orangina’s refreshing citrus character. Bernard Villemot (1911–1989) is widely regarded as one of the greatest poster artists of the 20th century. Known for his fluid lines, striking use of negative space, and rich yet controlled colour, Villemot created memorable advertising campaigns for major brands such as Perrier, Bally, Air France, and of course, Orangina.
