Henri Boulanger Gray
Gray was a prolific poster designer working regularly in all fields of advertising.
Overall, his posters reflect a very classic, realistic style, but there are a few extravagant exceptions. In at least three of his most famous posters, Petrole Stella included, Gray's style appealingly strays into a form of sensual cosmic imagery that was fashionable for posters of this period.
Little is known about Gray's life.

William Orpen's 'To the Unknown British Soldier in France'
There is a fascinating story about this picture that not only highlights the pomposity and arrogance of the politicians of the time of World War I but has also introduced me to the word 'vainglory', which I hadn't heard before but which is no doubt appropriate for some of today's leaders.
