Erte (1892-1990)! "Alphabet" Fine Art Poster (24" x 36"), Hand Signed with Certificate of Authenticity! List $600Both stylistically modern and compositionally classic, the work of Erte (1892-1990) is revered around the world for its originality and thought provoking subject matter. "Alphabet" is a fine art poster on paper, hand signed by Erte! Includes Certificate of Authenticity! Measures approx. 24" x 36" (image). ** Please note that due to the age of the artwork, there are several soft, faint creases across the image as well as minor wear on the edges and corners, noticeable only upon close inspection. The artwork is being offered with this in mind. **Born in St. Petersburg in 1892, and expected by his father to follow a military career, Erte confounded the Russian Fleet Admiral by creating his first successful costume design at the age of five. Not until he was 20 years old was Erte finally allowed to move to Paris in 1912 to pursue his passion for fashion. Erte enjoyed a long career as a fashion illustrator for Harper's Bazaar magazine, and gained fame as the creator of gloriously extravagant costumes and stage sets for the Folies Bergere in Paris, and for George White's Scandals in New York. He also designed for the opera and traditional theatre, and made a brief appearance on the Hollywood scene in 1925.Erte disappeared somewhat read more
