I'm still getting the occasional "Failed to Publish" messages that are on blogs with embedded comments. It is so random, but I will try until my comment finally publishes.
It's time once again to join Sami at Sami's Colourful World and her Monday Murals. Even though it's still Sunday in my world, please be aware
that Sami's mural link goes live at 11:01 a.m. my time today.
I realize the lighting is horrible, but I hope you can see how large this poster is. This is the second in the series of amazing posters under glass. See here if you missed last week's poster. I used two different translation tools, but neither worked, so I have no idea what the drink is the devil is holding. This is found inside the tea shop at The Spice Merchant located at 1308 E Douglas, Wichita, Kansas (USA). If you enjoy murals from around the world, please don't forget to visit Monday Murals at Sami's Colourful World.

Great poster - but I am not tempted to try that drink.
...things under glass are difficult to photograph. You made the best of a bad situation.
This guy has great color and is even perfect for October/Halloween with his devilish grin. Of course he is a devil-smile. Happy Sunday. hugs-Erika
Wee, he looks like some "bad" fun!
But what counts is FUN!
I think "PUY" is but his name. Nice thought to name a.. "a"!! devil (bet there are many around).
PUY seems to be a fun one, cheers!
The poster is very seasonal! Thanks for letting me know I didn't have comments turned on for my post today!
Cool poster
Nice poster, I saw it hanging in a lot of pubs when I was in France back when. But not something I would drink! Hugs, Valerie
It is a popular poster!
"Maurin Quina is a French apéritif advertisement painted by Leonetto Cappiello in 1906. It is perhaps Cappiello's most famous poster. The image features a devilish figure sneakily de-corking the bottle; Cappiello used "infernal imagery" in several of his posters for alcohol."
bleu N squiggles...we gotta fast quik minit two say HI, and heerz two an AWESUM weekz a head !!! :) ♥♥
It sure is an eye catcher. That drink must have a bit of a sting to it lol Cool poster
i like it
Google says that Maurin Quina "has a delicate red hue, and bright cherry flavor with a quinine backbone. The subtle wine base elevates an array of wild cherry, with light lemon and almond notes." As other commenters noted -- that poster is very famous. Le Puy is a place in France.

Interesting poster specially for those who can't understand the language!
My guess was absinthe!
I found this for you Elizabeth: https://spiritsoffrance.com.au/products/maurin-quina-le-puy-aperitif-16-1000ml
Not sure I would buy the drink with a devil advertising it though, lol.
Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Elizabeth.
Oh I love that image Elizabeth!
I have also been having some trouble commenting. I tried using Chrome instead of Firefox and that worked for me.
That looks a tad sinister!
