![This image depicts an old poster with vibrant colors and detailed caricatures of various historical figures gathered around a table, partaking in the enjoyment of La Menthe-Pastille liqueur. The scene is set against a dark backdrop with red text at the top reading "Au Tribunal de la Haye," which translates to "At The Hague Tribunal." Below this headline, there's an illustration featuring individuals from diverse backgrounds and professions dressed in period costumes. They are depicted in animated poses, engaging in various activities such as playing cards, drinking wine, or holding documents.
In the center of the poster stands a figure resembling King Louis XIV with his iconic wig, pouring liquid into glasses held by other figures. To the left, there's an individual wearing a military uniform adorned with medals and insignia, while another person is seen in a colorful outfit labeled "PARIS SPORT." On the right side, we see characters that represent different social classes or professions: one appears to be royalty, another sports a top hat reminiscent of Victorian-era attire, and others are shown in casual clothing. There's also an image of a rooster at the far left corner.
The lower part of the poster contains more text in large yellow letters stating "La Menthe-Pastille," with smaller red text saying "passionnée le Monde!!"
