About the Item

From the celebrated Alphabet Suite, this stunning Art Deco lithograph/serigraph was designed by the Russian-born French artist and designer known by the pseudonym Erté, and produced by Atelier Gourdon in collaboration with Atelier Arcay in Paris, France in 1977. The composition offers a female angel with light blue wings with a hand outstretched above a pair of turquoise doves against a background of stylized clouds and angel wings. The image forms the letter "S" against a black background. Additionally, a cursive letter "S" adorns each of the corners of the composition. With its iconically Art Deco sensibility and refined palate, this piece is sure to delight enthusiasts of 1930s design, as well as those with a penchant for exquisite objects. Erté created the image as a maquette which was then transferred onto lithographic plates at Atelier Gourdon. The gold embellishment was added by means of serigraphy at Atelier Arcay. Proofs were pulled in Paris, which the artist approved. The lithographic series was then printed at Atelier Gourdon in Paris under the direction of Master Lithographer Marcel Salinas. The print was finally signed by the artist in pencil, by hand, at his studio in Paris. Numbered "241/350" bottom left and signed bottom right. The work comes presented in a custom gallery frame with gilded accents at each corner and is in excellent condition. France, 1977 Dimensions: Overall: 21.75"W X 28"H X .75"D Sheet: 19.5"W X 25.25"H
