"The most well known of Chocolate poster designs of the period, and one
of the most sought after of the Maitre series" Greg Yaneff "This

languages as well minor design alterations, but the basic message of the pigtailed
graffiti artist made an indelible, endearing impression that stayed with the firm
for decades" (Rennert, PAI-XXVI, 299) "Bouisset
studied at the Beaux-Arts in Paris and went into portraiture, specializing in
children; he even designed murals for children's rooms

it's an eloquent masterpiece of poster design" (Wine
Spectator, 143) |
