Antique French Lithograph Poster "Cycles Tridon" by Maurice Lourdey circa 1900

About the Item

"CYCLES TRIDON" Maurice Lourdey (French, 1860-1934) Color lithograph Signed LOURDEY (lower right) Circa 1900 Item # 105HPZ14M A most attractive advertising poster from the turn of the century, it is incredibly striking at its notably large dimensions with an overall height of nearly 71" framed; this same lithograph of slightly larger dimensions is held in the collection of Musée Carnavalet in Paris (acc. no. AFF1563). Executed by Maurice Lourdey (French, 1860-1934) circa 1895-1900, the playful image depicts a flirtatious encounter between a young woman and an overweight older man made possible by the stability of Tridon tires. The present poster has an applied retailer address label on the lower right corner of the poster and is hung behind plexiglass in a modern frame. Please note, due to the oversized nature of this lithograph shipping will be via curbside freight. Measurements: [frame] 70 7/8" H x 51 5/8" W Condition Report: Tear lower right, toning to paper throughout, some very minor spots of color loss, faint and minor creasing; address label applied lower right, probably contemporary to the poster; not examined outside of the frame; frame is modern with minor wear.

    CHARLES VALTON French, 1851-1913 Lioness and Two Cubs Reddish-brown patinated bronze Signed "C. VALTON" to base over foundry cachet Item # 301HOC20P A good early cast circa 1910 of Charles Valton's Lioness and Two Cubs, it is a beautifully detailed sand-casting with a rich red-oxide and medium-brown surface patination that highlights the texture of the surface.
