Description

A hauntingly beautiful vintage stone lithographic French art deco poster for the Paris 1937 International Exhibition. Designed by Leonetto Cappiello (1875 – 1942) for the “Ministere du Commerce et de L'Industrie" and printed by “Creations Des Editions Nouvelles Cappiello = Edimo 15 Rue Galvani, Paris XVII". The allegorical figures representing art and technology are gowned in blueprint blue. They stand out against multi-colored banners and streamers. Technology holds mechanical drawing tools while art passes her the sacred flame. This poster is in a black lacquer frame measuring 48" x 32".
