EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning Champagne label for Jacquesson & Fils, specifically the Champagne Sillery Marque, dating back to the mid-19th century. Created by the talented French School of that era, this colour lithograph is now housed in the prestigious Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France. The historical significance of this label cannot be overstated. It was renowned as a favorite of none other than Napoleon Bonaparte himself, who awarded it a coveted gold medal in 1810. The legacy continued with Adolphe Jacquesson, grandson of founder Claude Jacquesson, who patented the muselet system in 1844. This ingenious invention involved using wire to securely hold champagne bottles closed and remains an integral part of champagne production today. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork captured by Archives Charmet and made available through Bridgeman Images, we are transported back to a time when elegance and refinement were paramount. This image not only represents drink and etiquette but also pays homage to one of the oldest independent champagne producers still thriving today. Let us raise our glasses to celebrate both the craftsmanship behind this exquisite label and its enduring legacy within the world of fine beverages.
