About the Item
In the realm of belle époque poster art, Henri Toussaint's 1907 creation for Chemins de fer de l'Est emerges as a masterpiece, inviting viewers on a visual journey to the exquisite city of Nancy. At the heart of this captivating artwork is the iconic "Place Stanislas," a central square that epitomizes the charm and elegance of the Lorraine region.
Henri Toussaint, a renowned French graphic artist of the early 20th century, employed his skill to craft a poster that seamlessly blends artistic flair with promotional messaging. The central focus is undeniably on Nancy's jewel, the Place Stanislas, a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its grandeur and architectural beauty.
The poster's composition is a harmonious interplay of colors, forms, and intricate details. Toussaint's use of a warm color palette, dominated by shades of gold and sepia, imparts a timeless quality to the scene, evoking a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era. The play of light and shadow further enhances the atmospheric quality, transporting viewers to the heart of Nancy's historic square.
The Place Stanislas takes center stage, framed by the ornate gates that guard its perimeter. Toussaint's attention to architectural accuracy is notable, capturing the essence of the square's classical design. The wrought-iron gates, elegant street lamps, and meticulously depicted façades of surrounding buildings contribute to the authenticity of the portrayal.

Henri-Charles Toussaint
Henri-Charles Toussaint was a French painter, illustrator, and etcher, who gained his highest reputation thanks to his architectural studies of Paris, of French provinces and Oxford and Cambridge. Toussaint was the pupil of Gaucherel and Andre in Paris, though he learned etching with Brunet-Desbaines. He exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1874 and in the following years, he received numerous awards, including medals from the Exposition Universelle in 1876, 1884, 1899 and 1900. Toussaint’s architectural etchings were well-known in both England and his native country France.
