About the Item
Beautiful lithography made by Pierre Fix-Masseau 🇫🇷 (1904-1995), a famous French poster and graphic designer.
It is as an apprentice of the master designer Art Deco A.M Cassandre that he begins his career, from 1926 to 1928.
This experience had a considerable influence on him, as he continued to work in the Art Deco style throughout his career.
Fix-Masseau created his own distinctive style, combining the influence of his master with his own perspective on intricate detail. He is best known for his railroad and automobile posters.
This poster is, beyond its beauty and rarity, very special. It is one of the last works of Fix-Masseau. Indeed, he designed this poster at the age of 85, but more importantly, it is a unique design that was commissioned for a marketing event based on the theme of a "global network" that never saw the light of day. Therefore, a very limited number of prints exist. This print is hand signed by the artist himself.

- 'Summer', New York ASL, Art Students League, PAFA, Salon d'Automne, ParisBy Nura UlreichLocated in Santa Cruz, CASigned lower right 'Nura' for Nura Woodson Ulreich (American, 1899–1950) above copyright information 'Nura W. Ulreich' and dated 1938. The poem below the figure of Summer reads: "Shimmer of heat from the hot dust road. Cold is the mud where the fern grows deep. Flower-scented atmosphere- peaceful sleep. Humming Bird daintily poised on its way. Velvet the night- iridescent the day. Showers and thunder, soft rainbows. Beauty incarnate in delicate clothes. This is the saga of Summer. " This painter, illustrator, muralist, lithographer, author and poet first studied at the Kansas City Art Institute before attending the Chicago Academy of Fine Arts and the Art Students League in New York. Nura Woodson then studied under John French Sloan and, later, with Frederic Gruger. She subsequently moved to Paris where she lived and painted for several years and where she met and married her husband, the Hungarian-American artist Buk Ulreich. While in France, she exhibited with success, including at the Salon d'Automne, and began to paint under the brush name, 'Nura'. After returning to the United States, Ulreich continued to exhibit widely, including at the Art Institute of Chicago, the Corcoran Galleries Biennials (1928-39), the Salons of America, the Society of Independent Artists (1928, 1941) and the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts (1929-1931).
