About the Item
This very rare original lithographic poster was designed by Georges Braque and printed by the Atelier Mourlot in 1961 for an exhibition at the Louvre Museum that year. This image was published by the French National Museums.
The bird is often presented as the soul's guide to the realm of the dead, and therefore acts as an embodiment of immortality. The most diverse cultures have cults centred on the bird, and in some cases specific birds, like the bird of paradise or the crow.
Until the Renaissance the bird took up a central place in the religious imagination, appearing in religious sculptures and manuscript illuminations. The bird subsequently lost its position as a vaunted symbol; not until Georges Braque would 'the Bird as principle, as highest value' return. According to Elgar, Braque freed the bird and returned it to its central place in his visual language.
Ref. Vallier #165, Mourlot #141. Ed. 1000 poster with lettering for the Louvre. 100 Signed and numbered without lettering. 5 with only "L'Atelier de Braque" as text.

1961 original exhibition poster of Georges Braque at the Musée Galliéra
By Georges Braque
Located in PARIS, FR
This sublime poster was made by Georges Braque 🇫🇷 (1882-1963) for his 1961 exhibition at the Galliera Museum (Fashion Museum of the City of Paris).
The Salon des Peintres témoins de leur temps is a show that was held every year between 1951 and 1983, first at the Museum of Modern Art of the city of Paris and then in the Palais Galliera.
Initiated by the painter Isis Kischka, the salon des peintres témoins de leurs temps is one of the most visited salons of the time, bringing together a hundred artists per edition while organizing around various themes over the years.
Braque is a major figure of modern art in the world. Along with Pablo Picasso, he was one of the initiators of Cubism, a pictorial movement based on the decomposition and geometrisation of forms.
In 1917, he created a series of breathtaking paintings. His paintings are divided into a series of themes: the figure, the still life and the studio.
It was in 1953, when he was at the peak of his career, that he completed "The Birds", this magnificent work which is featured on the poster.
This work, composed of three canvases...
