Description

On a ship’s deck, two fashionable women and two gentlemen sit at a café table on deck as a sailor presents bottled drinks; frothy beers and ruby beverages gleam against the sea-air backdrop. The headline reads “BRASSERIE SCHNEIDER / J. ALLARY, Succr / BRIVE,” with the lower text “Fabrique de boissons gazeuses” (manufacturer of fizzy drinks) and “Spécialité de Sodas” (speciality: sodas).

Colour lithograph on heavy stock, signed in the image “A. Quendray,” with printer line “Imp. I. Lang, 3 Rue du Plâtre, Paris.”
