Erte - Romain de Tirtoff
Erté, Romain de Tirtoff, (1892–1990) was a Russian-born French artist and designer who is equally famous for his elegant fashion designs and his artwork, both of which capture the art deco period in which he worked. Diversely talented, Erté was born in Saint Petersburg to a distinguished family with roots tracing back to 1548. After moving to Paris, he secured his first substantial contract with Harper's Bazaar magazine, and thus launched an illustrious career that included designing costumes and stage sets. Between 1915–1937, Erte designed over 200 covers for Harper's Bazaar, and his illustrations would also appear in such publications as Illustrated London News, Cosmopolitan, Ladies' Home Journal, and Vogue. Erté flourished and was renowned in an array of fields, including fashion, jewelry, graphic arts, costume and set design for film, theater, and opera, and interior decor.
After designing apparel for the French dancer Gaby Deslys, Erté went on to design costumes, program designs, and sets which were featured in the Ziegfeld Follies of 1923, many productions of the Folies Bergère, and George White's Scandals. On Broadway, the celebrated French chanteuse Irène Bordoni wore Erté's designs. His delicate figures and sophisticated, glamorous designs are instantly recognizable, and his ideas and art still influence fashion into the 21st century.

1969 Original Pop Art Serigraphy by Martial Raysse at Galerie Alexandre Iolas
Located in PARIS, FR
Original Serigraphy
This electrifying 1969 original exhibition poster was created for a show by Martial Raysse at the iconic Galerie Alexandre Iolas, a gallery that was instrumental in championing avant-garde artists across the major art capitals of the time. The poster is a bold visual manifesto of the Pop-infused, Neo-figurative aesthetic that defined Raysse’s work in the 1960s.
A pioneer of the French Nouveau Réalisme movement, Raysse blended glamour and critique in his exploration of consumer culture, plastic beauty, and artificial color. This poster is no exception: with its blazing fuchsia backdrop, cutout-style female profile, and shadowy black forms outlined in acid-yellow, it creates a near-hallucinogenic contrast that pulses with visual energy. The hand-rendered neon typography glows against the black bands above and below, recalling the commercial signage of American pop culture while exuding an unmistakably European sophistication.
The poster not only served to promote the exhibition—it was a work of art in its own right. Galerie Iolas...
