FLORENCE LUNDBORG THE LARK FEBRUARY. February, 1897.
241/4x123/4 inches.
Condition A.
One of the most prominent female artists working in the poster field at the turn-of-the century, Lundborg's work was prized by her contemporaries. Scotson-Clark writes in The Poster in November 1900 that Lundborg "deserves all praise . . . A complete set of the Lark advertisements is a very desirable possession." And Brietenbach contends that The Lark posters "rank among the best the American poster movement produced" (The American Poster p. 17). Kiehl 122, Margolin p. 132, Keay p. 72, not in DFP I.
