Michel Karis

Louis J. Rhead (1857-1926)
Read the Sun, 1897

Original lithograph on paper.

Plate-signed lower left margin.  

From the iconic Portfolio done for the first exhibition of posters held in Saint Pertersbourg in 1897.

Dimensions:
+ Size of the sheet: 34 x 25,5 cm / 13.4 x 10 in.

Condition: In overall good condition, with soft handling creases at the edges, minor parts missing at edges and some minor stains in the margins. Image very clean otherwise with vivid colors. Not framed.

The portfolio consisted of 39 lithographic plates (smaller versions) of the greatest posters printed between 1890 and 1897.
Many of the images in the series are so rare that they can be found today in no other format.
Much like the famous Maitre de L'Affiche series created by Cheret in Paris, the portfolio celebrated the rise of the poster in europe at the trun of the XIX century.

Printed in S. Petersbourg by Imprimerie de la Cour Imperiale. R. Golicke.
