Cupids, a kiss, and a glass of wine anchor this color lithograph advertising Porto Ramos-Pinto, the port wine of Adriano Ramos Pinto & Irmão of Porto, Portugal. René Vincent designed it, and the Paris firm Vercasson printed it around 1920. The poster reflects the period's commercial art, when color lithography let advertisers make bold, playful images for wide circulation. Rather than stressing the wine's origin or quality, it ties drinking to romance and pleasure, a common approach in interwar wine advertising.
