La Bodiniere (1900) Original Color Lithograph After Jules Cheret
Original lithograph printed in colors on wove paper. Lifetime impression
after Jules Cheret; plate 229 for the Maîtres de l’Affiche series.
Transcribed from Cheret's full-size 1900 poster of the same
title by artisans at Atelier Chéret and issued as plate 229 (of 256) in the series Les Maîtres de l’Affiche
(The Masters of the Poster), bearing the blindstamp of the monogram (Lugt 1777c) in the sheet lower right. Published by Jules
Chéret and printed at Impremiere Chaix (Atelier Chéret), Paris. Advertising a shadow theater epic play called
"The March in the Sunshine" running at the theater "La Bodiniere". Since artisans at Impremiere Chaix
transcribed the image, this is technically an "after" Cheret, although it is a lifetime impression.
