About the Item

The original lithograph by Eugène Grasset for Le Salon des Cent in 1894 epitomizes the artistic vibrancy of the Belle Époque era. Grasset, a Swiss-born artist celebrated for his contributions to the Art Nouveau movement, crafted this lithograph as a testament to the burgeoning cultural scene of the late 19th century. Hand-signed by the artist himself, this lithograph served as a promotional piece for Le Salon des Cent, a renowned Parisian art exhibition that showcased the works of avant-garde artists of the time. Grasset's distinctive style, characterized by intricate line work and botanical motifs, is evident in this lithograph, which likely adorned the streets of Paris, enticing art enthusiasts to attend the salon. As a leading figure in the Art Nouveau movement, Grasset's lithograph not only promoted the exhibition but also reflected the artistic ethos of the era. The intricate details and delicate balance of form and function speak to Grasset's mastery of design, while the hand-signed signature adds a touch of authenticity and prestige to the piece. Beyond its promotional intent, this lithograph is a testament to the collaborative spirit of Le Salon des Cent, which provided a platform for emerging and established artists to showcase their work. Grasset's contribution to the salon's visual identity underscores his pivotal role in shaping the artistic landscape of fin de siècle Paris. Today, Grasset's original lithograph serves as both a historical artifact and a celebrated example of Art Nouveau design. Its enduring legacy speaks to the timeless appeal of Grasset's artistry and the cultural significance of Le Salon des Cent in the annals of art history.
