GEORGES DE FEURE PARIS ALMANACH. 1896.
31x23 inches.
Condition A.
The Almanach was a guide to Paris published by Ed. Sagot. Here, de Feure's young lady is perfectly dressed and using the guide to help explore the city —finding herself at an art exhibition. She is alone in a crowd of men who are depicted darkly, and monochromatically in the background. One of them appears to be staring at her, but she stands almost defiantly and arrogantly in the foreground. This is the version before the black lettering was added. DFP-II 342, Gold 79.
