LA REVUE BLANCHE.
15 1/2x11 1/2 inches. Chaix, Paris.
Condition A. Paper.
Plate 82 of the Maitres de l'Affiche<> issued in 1897 (the poster was printed in 1895). The most delicate of Lautrec's posters, it is an image of Misia Natanson, the wife of one of the owners of the magazine La Revue Blanche<>, who was considered to be the real brains behind the literary endeavor. Cut-off below the knees in a dramatic fashion, she is actually skating.
