Original Description
Cailler by Maurice Denis envelops the viewer in a radiantly tender world where art and commerce harmoniously intertwine. Created in 1898 for Cailler chocolates, this iconic lithograph exemplifies Denis' pioneering Nabis style—flattened perspectives, bold outlines, and decorative patterning that bridged Post-Impressionism and Art Nouveau. The composition blooms with gracefully elongated female figures amid floral motifs, their dreamlike gestures evoking both sacred iconography and modern advertising allure. Denis' signature "synthetic" approach transforms product promotion into high art, where chocolate wrappers become altarpieces of bourgeois delight. As a founding Nabi who famously declared "Remember that a picture...is essentially a flat surface covered with colors assembled in a certain order," this work stands as a pivotal moment when avant-garde aesthetics permeated commercial design, predating similar experiments by the Vienna Secession by nearly a decade.
For contemporary spaces, Cailler's warm ochres and botanical greens make it ideal for dining areas or cozy studies seeking refined nostalgia. Hang the print in slender gold frames against sage or terracotta walls to amplify its organic palette—the 67x52cm original size works beautifully above mantels or as part of a salon-style grouping with other Nabi works like Vuillard's interiors. Pair with curvilinear Art Nouveau furniture or minimalist Scandinavian pieces to highlight either its decorative exuberance or underlying structure. In offices, position near seating areas to spark creative dialogue, flanked by potted Monstera plants whose leaves echo Denis' stylized foliage. The artwork's commercial genesis makes it particularly apt for boutique workspaces, where its marriage of artistry and commerce continues inspiring nearly 125 years later.
