Description
Current Lot POSTER: PAUL COLIN (1892-1986). LES FÉERIES F PAUL COLIN (1892-1986) LES FÉERIES FANTASTIQUES DE LA LOÏE FULLER. 1925. 62 3/4x47 inches, 159 1/2x119 1/2 cm. H. Chachoin, Paris. Condition B+: loss in upper left corner; unobtrusive vertical and horizontal folds; tears and creases at edges; minor abrasions in image. Paper. Loïe Fuller (1862-1928) was the most acclaimed dancer of the Belle Epoque. Her serpentine dance not only inspired some of the era's best artists, including Toulouse Lautrec and Rodin, but also captivated many of the greatest poster artists, like Cheret, Pal and Orazi, who captured her movements with lithography. By 1925 at the age of 63, she was still performing and was still capable of transfixing great young artists with her performance. Eliminating unnecessary lines and playing with colors and shapes, Paul Colin demonstrates a sensuous, cubist style that appears in none of his other work, fully capturing the movement and colors of her féeries fantastique. One of Colin's masterpieces, and one of the rarest of all his posters. Colin 4, Colin / Spectacles 126.
