MISTI (FERDINAND MIFLIEZ) HUMBER / BEESTON. 38x531/4 inches. B. Sirvin. Condition B+: restored loss in top margin; repaired tears in margins and image; vertical and horizontal folds. Like most of the poster artists of his generation Misti was basically a painter who switched to the nascent medium of lithography because the popular new outdoor advertisers were looking for talent. He ultimately created a large number of posters for cycles, liqueurs and department stores. Here, in sepia tones, he depicts a woman standing next to a black bicycle.
