CHRISTIAN BÉRARD
Deux costumes pour le théâtre.

Gouache and brush and ink on cream wove paper. 490x348 mm; 19 3/8x13 3/4 inches.

Neo Romantic and illustrative artist Christian Bérard (1902-1949) lived a life of extremes. Enamored of haute couture, Parisian high society, ballet and theater, he combined a charming and witty joie de vivre with innate artistic talent to create immensely popular art, fashion, costume and set designs.
