GEORGES DE FEURE (1868-1943) [LE JOURNAL DES VENTES.] 1897.
24 3/4x16 1/2 inches, 63x42 cm.
Condition A: minor creases in image. Hand-signed by the artist in blue pencil. Matted and Framed.
Jane Abdy considers this "de Feure's finest poster, and one of the most beautiful of the whole period" (Abdy p, 156). The Journal des Ventes was a Belgian auction journal, so, fittingly, de Feure depicts a woman admiring a work of art glass. This is a rare proof before text. DFP-II 351 (var), Maitres 146 (var), Abdy p. 150 (var).
