In Saint-Romain-Le-Puy, in the plain of the Forez mountains, two sources of naturally carbonated mineral water spring forth. One is called the Parot spring, the other the Fontfort spring. Cappiello made the same poster for both springs.

A pelican scoffs at the sight of a mouse trying to open a bottle of Parot spring water.
