Description

This bold Belle Époque lithograph advertises the grand opening sale of Aux Filles du Calvaire, a Paris department store located on Rue des Filles du Calvaire and Rue de Turenne, announcing 'Lundi 4 Octobre' as its opening day. The poster features a dramatic central vignette of a young girl in a red-striped outfit embracing a large lion, set against a deep violet-to-cream gradient background with commanding black and gold typography. On a wall, it delivers the rich colour drama and confident graphic energy of 19th-century French commercial art.
