A rare and refined original Domergue lithograph, this second-state impression with remarque was created for the celebrated 1956 portfolio La Parisienne. Printed on elegant Japon paper at Atelier Dominique Viglino and supervised by Domergue himself, it exemplifies the artist’s legendary finesse in portraying the Parisienne, graceful, poised, and irresistibly chic.

With only 80 examples of this special state, the work is a true collectible for connoisseurs of mid-century French prints and original vintage posters/lithographs. The impression is crisp, the tones luxurious, and the paper beautifully preserved, an outstanding addition to any collection focused on French modernism and the art of the feminine figure.
