ROGER BRODERS (1883-1953) MONACO MONTE - CARLO. Circa 1920.
42 1/2x31 inches, 108x78 3/4 cm. J. Langlois, Paris.

This is one of Broders' earliest posters, and his first for the Côte d'Azur. He beautifully captures "the impression of romance and nostalgia [in a manner that is] astonishing for its composition and the complementary yet contrasting colors" (Azur p. 170). Broders p. 96, Perry / Broders p. 17, Riviera 97, Azur 209.
