Lu Lu Biscuits By Firmin Etienne Bouisset – Posters and prints on paper or canvas by standard digital or deluxe giclee printing.
Etienne Maurice Firmin Bouisset was a French painter, poster artist, and printmaker. Born to a working-class family in the town of Moissac in the Tarn-et-Garonne departement in southwestern France, Bouisset left an indelible mark on the world of art and advertising. His specialization lay in painting children, and he produced a number of illustrated books, including the charming La Petite Menagere in 1890. Bouisset’s iconic images graced advertising posters for various French food companies, such as Maggi and Lefevre-Utile (LU). Bouisset passed away in Paris on March 19, 1925. The LU Biscuits advertisement, created by Bouisset, is a captivating vintage French poster that dates back to 1897. The poster features a young boy dressed in white, donning a blue and red cape. With a basket in hand, he enjoys a LU petit beurre biscuit, a delightful treat. The artist’s skillful use of color and composition draws attention to the boy’s joyful expression as he indulges in the biscuit. “The Little Schoolboy” (or “Petit Ecolier”) became an enduring symbol in advertising and the LU initials, which serve as the ad logo, is still used by the company today..The Lefevre Utile (LU) Biscuit Company commissioned this charming piece to promote their product. Bouisset’s work captures the essence of childhood delight and the simple pleasure of savoring a delicious biscuit. The poster’s nostalgic appeal continues to resonate, making it a timeless piece of advertising art. Bouisset’s talent lies in evoking emotion through visual storytelling, and the LU Biscuits poster remains a delightful testament to his skill and the enduring allure of French culinary history.
