‘Fashionable Boulevard Montmartre.’
An Original Poster by Pierre Laurent Brenot.
A lithograph produced in 1940.
French artist Pierre Brenot was known for producing glamorous images of fashionable life. In this image the subjects wear outfits decorated with suits from playing cards as they cavort with a circus horse.
Size of image: 109 x 74 cms or 43 x 29 1/4 inches.
Size of canvas surround: 116.5 x 79.5 cms or 46 x 31 inches.
Condition: Very Good. The image shows wear particularly at the creases were once it was folded into eight parts. The whole has been linen backed and so is now secure and quite robust. The white surround is a little ragged at the edges and there are holes where it was pinned to the wall but this wear would not show were it framed. The colours remain true and consistent .
