Jules Chéret (1836-1932) was a French painter and lithographer who became a master of Belle Époque poster art. He has been called the father of the modern poster.
Born in Paris to a poor but creative family of artisans, Chéret had a very limited education. At age thirteen, he began a three-year apprenticeship with a lithographer and then his interest in painting led him to take an art course at the École Nationale de Dessin. Like most other fledgling artists, Chéret studied the techniques of various artists, past and present, by visiting Paris museums.
I'll be back for more! If you're here browsing it's worth a bookmark, pin, follow, share as it's difficult to find art that is in the public domain. This collection is going to break me out of my comfort zone for vintage wearable art, absolutely, but our world in that time held excitement on every corner. Like when we were kids and experiencing things for the first time. Sorry, I ramble, the quality is gorgeous!!!!
