Description

This striking Belle Époque lithograph advertises Burnichon rat poison, depicting a bold anthropomorphic rat wearing a neckerchief alongside a dramatic scene of rats swarming around bait. The composition features vivid, theatrical illustration typical of late 19th-century French commercial printing, with a skull-and-crossbones warning panel adding dark graphic punch. On a wall, it reads as a rare, conversation-starting piece of antique commercial art with both humor and historical character.
