February 9, 2008 Mouton Rothschild artist labels
“With the Liberation of France, to celebrate the return of the peace and to mark a new beginning, Baron Philippe conceived the idea of dedicating the vintage of 1945, one of the greatest of the century, to ‘Année de la Victoire, the year of the Victory. He commissioned the young painter Philippe Jullian to produce a graphic design based on the “V” sign made famous by Winston Churchill during the war.
That exception became the rule, and from 1946 on a contemporary artist was commissioned every year to create an original work to illustrate the label.”
This site collects all the designs into one place <link>. Nice work.

Hello, I am trying to contact the Rothchild wine label industry. My paintings and writings are suitable for wine labels and I would like to submit a label to be considered for publishing on label format. This label is specifically for wine promotion. You might see my web page to establish my ability to express human emotion and story within my work. I may be contacted at my website or my e-mail address. Jean Lea Johnson 905-521-8174. Ontario Canada.
