At the time of the winery’s 150th anniversary, the Cousiño family has decided to use a new image for their artwork. The 1927 Belle Epoque image represents an important part of the history of the Cousiño family. In 1927, Arturo Cousiño, head of the 4ª generation at the time, commissioned this particular painting when was living in France.
The painting by René Vincent (1879-1936), a famous Belgian-French artist, was commissioned by Arturo Cousiño Lyon (1898-1990). The artist also created special works at the request of such well-known industrial leaders as Peugeot, Shell, Bugatti, Porto Ramos Pinto, Perrier, Lambretta, Michelin, and a few others. This was the only painting ever made for a Chilean company by this recognized artist.
