Ciprie Bertelli – A Whimsical 1921 Italian Beauty Poster by Achille Luciano Mauzan

Celebrate the playful sophistication of early Italian advertising with Ciprie Bertelli, a striking 1921 vintage cosmetics poster by Achille Luciano Mauzan promoting Bertelli face powder.

Mauzan transforms an ordinary powder compact into an imaginative theatrical scene. A glamorous red-haired woman emerges from a luxurious cloud of white powder, dramatically lifting the oversized decorated lid above her head. The powder puff becomes an extravagant feather-like skirt, while vivid yellow, orange, green, and blue accents stand brilliantly against the deep burgundy-black background.

The Italian slogan “dalla morbida profumata carezza” evokes the product’s “soft, perfumed caress,” reinforcing the elegance and femininity associated with Bertelli cosmetics. Mauzan’s characteristic combination of humor, exaggerated scale, fashionable figures, and bold commercial imagery makes the design immediately recognizable.

Created during the flourishing period of Italian poster art between Art Nouveau and Art Deco, Ciprie Bertelli is an exceptional decorative choice for bedrooms, dressing rooms, powder rooms, bathrooms, salons, boutiques, vanity areas, and collections of vintage fashion and beauty advertising.
