About this work

This poster shows four people in a row. The first looks happy and wears glasses. The second holds a cane and has a serious face. The third man smokes a cigarette and looks bored. The last person raises one hand like they’re in the middle of a gesture. The title at the bottom reads *La Comédie de l’Amour*—that means "The Comedy of Love." The artist used a rough, sketchy style with bold black lines. Check out how this was made with lithography.
