About this work

This poster shows a woman in a flowing pose, holding a long object like a sword or spear. Her hair and clothes blend into swirling, warm orange and yellow lines. The background is mostly plain, with a small coat of arms in the top corner and text in bold black letters. The text reads "France Champagne" and names a proprietor, E. Debray, with an address in Paris. The style looks loose and sketchy, almost like a quick drawing. If you like this bold, graphic look, check out lithography.
