Late 19th Century French Vintage "Cycles Andru" Poster
Located in Dallas, TX
Decorate a game room or exercise room with this large and colorful antique Belle Epoque poster! Created by artist Dourzinelle circa 1890 for Andru Cycles, the wonderfully made stone lithograph features an elegantly dressed woman in the center foreground of the image. A winding road extends out behind her, with fields and the outline of a town in the background, creating a picturesque country scene. The use of both realistic details and fluid curving lines coupled with bold block typography creates a classically Belle Epoque period advertising poster. This poster has been professionally linen backed. Virtually all original vintage posters of this era were viewed as temporary advertising and were printed on fragile, thin paper. While expensive, linen backing is a conservation method used to mount, stabilize, preserve, and protect vintage posters so they can be displayed or framed without compromising value...
