About the Item

Crafted during the height of the Cold War in 1971, the Soviet poster titled "Encore sur Mars! Vaisseaux spatiaux Mars-2 et Mars 3 en vol" (Still on Mars! Spacecraft Mars-2 and Mars 3 in flight) stands as a powerful testament to the space race between the United States and the Soviet Union. The poster showcases the Mars-2 and Mars-3 spacecraft, marking significant milestones in the Soviet Union's ambitious space exploration program. During this era, both superpowers vied for supremacy in space, with Mars being a focal point of exploration due to its scientific intrigue. The design of the poster reflects the era's fascination with space exploration, utilizing bold imagery and vibrant colors to capture the public's imagination. These spacecraft, which played integral roles in Soviet Mars missions, symbolize the technological prowess and scientific achievements of the Soviet space program.

1894 Eugène Grasset’s Art Nouveau poster - Sarah Bernhardt - Jeanne d'Arc
By Eugène Grasset
Located in PARIS, FR
Eugène Grasset’s medieval-inspired Art Nouveau poster, commissioned by Sarah Bernhardt to promote her 1894 role as Joan of Arc in Jules Barbier’s Jeanne d'Arc. Grasset portrays Bernhardt in the spirit of her historic role: standing bravely with a flowing flag embellished with fleur-de-lis amidst an onslaught of arrows and spears.

Circa 1900 Original poster for the Tillier dance Troup at the Palais de Glace
Located in PARIS, FR

She is far, far safer than the girl who enters the profession after childhood.' So wrote John Tiller, whose theatrical school produced the dancing ladies who starred in the original 'Pony Ballet' and whose troupes of 'Tiller Girls' were in great demand for shows not only in London but in Paris, Amsterdam, Turin, and New York. He and Mrs. Tiller began training youngsters at the age of nine. In the schools in London and Manchester, the girls had regular academic studies as well as dancing and were placed in Christmas pantomimes when still children. When they grew up, they were given jobs in various Tiller troupes (each managed by a mature woman who watched out for them)... [This lithograph]... was intended for all of the Tiller Troupe performances. The black type at the bottom was surprinted later to indicate, in this instance, their appearance at the Palais de Glace...
