NITROLIAN. 1929.

62 1/2x47 inches. Devambez, Paris.
Condition A-: creases in margins. Framed.
A worker in black and white is painting a staircase red under the descending feet of a partially seen woman. By depicting the woman in white, clearly a lady of elegance and taste given the cut of her dress and the profile of her shoes, Cappiello emphasizes the fast drying nature of this paint and the faith which consumers should have in the product. The poster is echoed, graphically, on the can of paint in the worker's hand, where the image reappears as the can's label.
