Cassandre, the artistic alias of Adolphe Jean-Marie Mouron (January 24, 1901 – June 17, 1968), was a versatile French creative talent celebrated for his accomplishments as a painter, commercial poster designer, and typeface innovator. His success enabled him to establish Alliance Graphique, his own advertising agency, in collaboration with partners, catering to a diverse range of clients during the 1930s. Cassandre is especially renowned for his iconic travel posters, notably for the Compagnie Internationale des Wagons-Lits. Additionally, he made pioneering contributions to the field of airbrush art. Cassandre's portfolio spans a spectrum from awe-inspiring, masculine posters crafted for train and shipping companies, paying homage to industrial machinery and progress, to delightful, humorous, and lively advertising figures.
