Lithographies Originales (1896). Georges de Feure (French, 1868-1943).
Here, represented is a supremely elegant woman of fascinating beauty who is deeply engrossed in her admiration for the cover of the album of lithographs being advertised. The text of Album No. 1 appears on the back of the sheet being held by the woman. The exquisite Art Nouveau image is also self-referential as his signature appears in the lithographic stone at the woman’s elbow.
