Les Maitres de l'Affiche; Special Plate 48 - HarlequinAn original lithograph. Plate 48 of the Les Maitres de l'Affiche series. Printed by Imprimerie Chaix, Paris, 1896. Subscribers to the Maitre de l'Affiche series received 4 special plates annually. Unlike the regular plates, which first appeared as posters, these plates were created especially for the series. Here, Cheret has given us a female harlequin, so typical in cocky stance & expression. This poster is backed onto linen.
