This poster shows three actors in a play. The man on the left wears glasses and a striped shirt, holding a cane. The middle actor stands with hands on hips, looking serious. The man on the right is mid-gesture, holding a cigarette. The background has a shadowy figure with a raised arm. The text names the play *La Comédie de l’Amour* by Henrik Ibsen. The actors’ exaggerated poses suggest a mix of drama and humor. Next, look up La Jeunesse, Ernest to see more of his work.
