This beautifully typographed ad (click to see larger version) is part of a campaign for the grand opening of “Colette’s Gardens“. These gardens are in the south of France and dedicated to Colette, one of the most famous French female writers.
Colette was the pen name of the French novelist Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette (January 28, 1873 – August 3, 1954). She is best known, at least in the English-speaking world, for her novel Gigi, which provided the plot for a Lerner & Loewe musical film and stage musical.
