Art Deco Print by Maurice de Becque for "Sonnica la Courtisane"
About the Item
A 1928 color etching signed in pencil by Maurice de Becque for "Sonnica de Courtisane" by Vincente Blasco-Ibanez, this piece exhibits the stylized, moderne style we call Art Deco. Depicting three nude women in various stages of sleep and swoon in a shadowy foreground, the piece puts its spotlight on a classical statue of a nude male in the background. This gorgeous print makes use of a wide range of color: deep blacks, rich grays and gray-rose. De Becque was known for his Art Deco illustrations, including a book of letters by Montesquieu published in 1925.

- "Lysistrata, " Set of 61 Extraordinary Art Deco Prints for 1945 Edition by L'hoirLocated in Philadelphia, PAThis extraordinary set of 61 prints on 34 separate sheets of rag paper by Maurice L'Hoir were made in connection with the 1945 publication of Lysistrata, the Classic Greek poem that offers a licentious take on the war between the sexes. Each of the prints is a woodcut that was inked by hand in a brilliant palette of deep red, mossy green, deep black and warm fleshy tones by the artist Each of these images were created for the book, only 33 copies of which were made. However, this set is independent of the book and therefore each print is unbound and easy to frame. The Greek poem famously describes the determination of Greek women to refuse all sex with men until they agreed to stop fighting. L'Hoir was famed for his book illustrations during the Art Deco period; he also designed a poster for Moulin Rouge in the 1920s. (The Lysistrata book is also available, separate from this set of prints.).Category
