A vast numeral 1, and a woman in a royal-blue dress leaping against it with a shoe in each hand. Leonetto Cappiello (1875 to 1942) designed it in 1933 for the Aurore shoe company. Devambez, at 144 Champs-Elysées in Paris, printed it, during Cappiello’s long association with Devambez, which began in 1919. The poster is catalogued as entry 484 in the Cappiello/Rennert catalogue raisonné.

Bold white sans-serif capitals at the base spell "AURORE", and red capitals beneath read "LA CHAUSSURE DE QUALITÉ" (the quality shoe).
