"Advertising Plaque For Chocolat d'Aiguebelle, Trappist Fathers, Circa 1920"
A painted tin advertising sign for Aiguebelle chocolate, created to promote products made by the Trappist monks of Aiguebelle Abbey in the Drôme region of France. The image depicts a cloister and workshop, illustrating the organization of economic activities developed by Trappist communities in the early 20th century. The lettering is raised, a characteristic of some metal advertising signs from this period, and the painted surface shows regular wear due to its long history of exposure.
