The image features a medevil design with a knight and his horse on a large rock. The rocky landscape are beautifully colors. In the valley is a battle scene. Antar was a 6th-century Arabian warrior-poet. Opera was in rehearsal at the Opera in 1914, when the composer died at the age of 36 on the very day war was declared. The performance was canceled and the opera was not given until nearly 7 years later. This is an Original Lithograph Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction. Printed by Maquet Gr. Paris, 1921. Georges Rochegrosse. He was a man of his time, one of the establishments, whose paintings brought large prices from a French public who loved his subjects and admired his technique. Raymond Rudorff, in the Belle Epoque, states that Rochegrosse "was to painting what Cecil B. DeMille was to costume films and he was a popular favorite until the early years of the century". Rochegrosse was also a member of the Societe des Artistes Francais. He became an officer of the Legion d"honeur in 1910, and he enjoyed a long association with the Automobile Club of France, designing at least three posters for their yearly shows.
