This poster shows two people in a theater setting. One is dressed in a fancy black suit with a top hat, while the other wears a simple red dress with bare shoulders. The background is mostly red and beige, with bold outlines and flat colors. Notice how the artist used simple shapes and bright colors to make the scene pop. The text at the bottom lists the play’s title, *L'Argent*, and the actors’ names. Want to see more work like this? Check out lithography.
