EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the Edwardian era with this advertisement for Dubonnet, a popular wine-based aperitif from the late 19th century. The image features a radiant red-haired lady, dressed in the height of fashionable attire, as she playfully grins at a mischievous-looking black cat. The setting is elegant and refined, with ornate wallpaper and a gilded mirror reflecting the lady's image. Dubonnet, a French creation, was first introduced in 1846 and gained significant popularity in the United Kingdom during the late 1800s. The advertisement showcases the brand's sophisticated image, appealing to the tastes and desires of the well-heeled society of the time. The lady's indulgence in a glass of Dubonnet, accompanied by the charming presence of the black cat, suggests a sense of relaxation and enjoyment. The 1890s, also known as the Victorian or Edwardian era, was a time of great social change and innovation. This advertisement offers a glimpse into the lifestyle and preferences of the era, providing a fascinating look at the history of advertising and the cultural context of the time. The use of a striking image, clever tagline, and the allure of an exotic beverage would have effectively captured the attention of potential customers, making this advertisement a standout piece of historical advertising.
