{"product_id":"lhay-les-roses-2","title":"Rose Garden Festival","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis original 1961 French exhibition poster was created to promote a seasonal event at the Roseraie in L'Haÿ les Roses, the world’s first municipal rose garden and one of the most important botanical sites in France. The dates printed at the top, from May 26 to July 16, reflect peak bloom season, when the garden was open daily to the public under the direction of the Préfecture de la Seine. Admission, transportation details, and visiting hours are all integrated into the design, grounding the image firmly in its historical moment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe artwork is signed by Cluseau and rendered in a restrained mid century palette. A stylized female figure gently holds a single red rose, its saturated color standing in deliberate contrast to the soft grays and muted greens of the surrounding composition. The architectural forms in the background reference the formal layout of the rose garden and its pavilion structures, while the flowing lines and simplified shapes reflect postwar French graphic design sensibilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElegant and quietly symbolic, this poster celebrates both nature and civic culture, presenting the rose as a living emblem of beauty, care, and renewal. As a period exhibition poster tied to a specific season and location, it stands as a refined example of early 1960s French public art and garden promotion, appealing to collectors of botanical imagery, French travel posters, and modernist graphic design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Size\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 22.0\" x 15.75\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Condition\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very Good, Age-appropriate wear, fading and toning.
