{"product_id":"la-reine-de-joie-2","title":"Reine de Joie, Les Maîtres de l'Affiche","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis reduction of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec's infamous 'Reine de Joie' poster captures one of the most scandalous images of Belle Époque Paris. Published as plate 10 in the celebrated Les Maîtres de l'Affiche series in 1896, it reproduces the artist's 1892 advertisement for Victor Joze's controversial novel about a courtesan and her wealthy paramour. The intimate scene, with its bold yellow ground, striking red dress, and caricatured banker, allegedly prompted legal threats from a Parisian financier who saw himself in the portly figure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eToulouse-Lautrec's revolutionary approach to lithography transformed commercial poster art into something entirely new. His japoniste-influenced flat color planes, bold outlines, and unflinching depiction of Montmartre's demimonde established a visual language that would influence generations of graphic designers. Printed by Imprimerie Edw. Ancourt \u0026amp; Cie, this piece represents an opportunity to own museum-quality work from one of art history's most influential printmakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA standout piece for collectors of French poster art, graphic design history, or fin-de-siècle Parisian culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.75\" x 9.5\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Good, Paper toning in accordance with the print's age.
