Description

This charming French lithograph poster advertises a toy exposition ('Exposition de Jouets') on Monday 29 November at the Parisian department store Au Petit St. Thomas, featuring lively caricature-style figures of children and a woman dancing and celebrating with flyers and toys. The sepia and black palette with expressive ink linework is characteristic of late 19th-century French commercial lithography, conveying festive holiday excitement. On a wall, it reads as an authentic slice of Victorian-era Parisian retail culture with a playful, storybook energy.
