JULES CHERET (1836-1932) PARFUMERIE-DISTILLERIE MONACO. 1897. 47 1/2x33 1/2 inches. Chaix, Paris. Condition B+: water stain in bottom margin; discoloration and minor foxing in margins; creases in image; white overpaint in bottom image. Framed. Centered around Grasse, the Riviera was the major flower-growing area for the perfume industry. Here, bathed in tones of Riviera-blue, a lovely Cherette is the charming allegory for flower-fresh scent. Flowers and petals from her bouquet fall all around her, leaving a beautiful, fragrant trail, much like the perfume she is promoting. Broido 940.
