This is a wonderful mounted lithographic print taken from the original 1913 art deco fashion design of "Winter Coat" by Poiret, which was illustrated by George Lepape, for La Gazette du Bon Ton (which later became Vogue). In the early part of the 20 th Century adistinctive modern style evolved and spread into almost every aspect of life. The style was Art Deco – and with it began the great age of elegance and glamour. Designers and illustrators of the time created new forms, shapes and colour harmonies that cut away the old over elaborate Art Nouveau designs. Sharp, simple geometric shapes with bright primary colours were the order of the day. Women’s fashions especially reflected this new exciting movement. This mounted print is approx 14" x 11" (35.5 x 27.9cm, the image size being approx 25.5 x 20cm) and will fit into a standard sized frame of your choice. It is in pristine condition with no rips tears or creases. It is further protected by a thick rear mounting board. Please do not confuse this print with a cheap home produced/scanned copy, as can be found in many ebay listings, this is a lithographic print which was produced commercially by Toppan, Singapore , in 1988 . This wonderful print will look stunning framed and displayed in any room of your home. It will make a great addition to any collection of Art Deco.

Every item posted is documented using the normal “proof of postage”. However, any items that sell for more than £30 will only be posted by registered/recorded delivery. This will add approximately £1.50 to the stated priority/first class charges. Items with a starting price of £30 and over will have a P&P price that includes Registered/recorded delivery. This is to protect both parties in the unlikely event of a parcel failing to arrive at its destination address. Due to work commitments I only post out items twice per week and only after Paypal clearance. My work commitments are European wide and at the moment I am stationed in Bulgaria , with only a small amount of leave back home to the UK . Therefore, although I do still post items when I am in the UK , at the moment many items will be posted from Bulgaria . It will be posted priority airmail and there will be no change in the P&P costs to the buyer; however delivery will take a few days longer than is usual. Customer satisfaction is very important to me and I always endeavour to maintain a high standard of service. However, in the unlikely event that you do experience a problem, please contact me first before leaving a neutral/negative feedback and I will endeavour to sort out any issue in a professional and friendly manner. I am happy to answer any questions through an Ebay message. PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: I am not an art/antiques expert or dealer and therefore the term Lithographic print in my listing refers to any and all forms of Lithographic printing (including offset, photo-mechanical, collotype, cliché-verre, chine colle, etc., etc). Unless otherwise stated in the listing, the print will not be a limited edition and will not be hand produced or signed by the artist. Equally important, I can guarantee that it will not be a cheap copy, duplicate or a (made at home on a printer) “giclee” print, as found in many Ebay listings. It will be a commercially produced lithographic print, as detailed, that will grace any room it is displayed in. Please be sure you are happy with the item before you place a bid. read more
