{"product_id":"glutton","title":"The Glutton, Operetta","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis original 1913 poster was created by Charles Léandre for the operetta La Gourmandise, known in English as The Glutton, with music by Georges Spitzmuller and Maurice Boukay. Produced at the height of Parisian operetta culture, the piece reflects a moment when theater, satire, and illustration were tightly intertwined on the streets of France.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLéandre was celebrated for his sharp wit and expressive line, moving effortlessly between caricature, social commentary, and theatrical illustration. By the early twentieth century, his work had become instantly recognizable, often exaggerating form and gesture to humorous extremes while retaining psychological insight. Here, indulgence and excess are treated not as moral warnings, but as playful spectacle, perfectly aligned with the spirit of operetta as popular entertainment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis poster sits firmly within the Belle Époque tradition, when illustrated theater posters functioned as both advertisement and art form. It captures a time when Paris embraced humor, appetite, and performance with unapologetic flair, and when artists like Léandre shaped how audiences encountered live theater long before the curtain ever rose. *Additional photos availble upon request.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Size\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 34.0\" x 25.0\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Artist\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e Charles Leandre\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Condition\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Good to Very Good, Age appropriate fading, toning and wear.
