Description
As Cheret's work became more popular and his large posters displaying free-spirited females found a larger audience, pundits began calling him the “father of the women's liberation.” The women of Chéret's posters - “Cherettes”, as they were popularly called - were joyous, elegant and lively. It was freeing for the women of Paris, and heralded a noticeably more open atmosphere in Paris where women were able to engage in formerly taboo activities, such as wearing low-cut bodices and smoking in public. Lithograph poster printed by Chaix, linen backed, B- condition. Dimensions in inches: 48.8 x 34.6''.
