47 1/4x33 1/2 inches. Chaix, Paris.
Condition A: minor repaired tears in margins. Matted and framed.
Intended to advertise a marionette show, this poster rarely appears with text and instead primarily exists as a very compelling decorative panel. Containing many of Cheret's classic characters, a Cherette, Pierrot and harlequin, they all seem to be dancing in air, just like puppets on a stage. Broido cover and 471, DFP-2 267 (var).
