Visuals: On a black background, the outlined daisy from the Gaumont Films Cinema logo is shown, this time with "Gaumont" written on it.

Variants:

• This logo appears on an experimental Chronochrome film made in 1912. Chronochrome was Gaumont's three-colour additive process used from 1912-1913. Throughout the logo, it slightly changes in hue, demonstrating the technique.
• A golden version is seen on the 1915 silent film L'embusqué.
• At the start and end of some films, the logo is at the bottom of a stylised frame that usually has French text with the title of the film and the director (Opening) and/or Fin (Closing).

Technique: A hand-drawn graphic.

Audio: The closing theme of the film. Silent for the color variant.

Availability: It appears in cartels of cinema from Gaumont from 1908 to 1915, and appears on the short film L'embusqué.
