The image depicts an advertisement poster for Helm Cocoa, likely from the late 19th or early 20th century. The central figure is a woman dressed in a green dress with red hair styled into decorative tendrils and adorned with floral accessories on her head. She holds a cup of cocoa as she gently feeds it to a young child who sits beside her at floor level, nude except for small white flowers around the neck area.
The background features ornate design elements including swirls and scrollwork in shades of red, pink, green, and beige. The text "HELM" is prominently displayed at the top left corner on a red backdrop with decorative swirls flowing into it. Additional Dutch language information suggests that this cocoa product originates from Helmond Holland.
This image captures a classic depiction of family warmth and indulgence in chocolate consumption during its time period, utilizing rich colors and detailed patterns to create an appealing visual presentation for potential customers.
