ROGER BRODERS (1883-1953) VICHY. 1928.
39 1/4x24 1/2 inches, 100x62 cm. Lucien Serre, Paris.
Condition A.
An exceptional Art Deco collage highlighting Vichy's activities, natural splendor and glamorous visitors. Within Broder's small but renowned oeuvre this poster stands out as one of only a few in which the typography deviates from his standard of being uniformly arrayed across the bottom of the image. It is also unique in that it is his only poster done in the collage/montage style. Broders p. 54, Perry / Broders p. 53 and cover, Hillion p. 104, Chemins de Fer 120, Zagrodzki 239.
