Description

A Belle Époque advertising poster depicts an elegantly dressed young woman in a white off-shoulder gown, glancing coyly over her shoulder before a gilded vanity mirror, with perfume bottles arranged on the dressing table. The poster promotes two fragrance lines — Opéra Velouté and Opéra Violette — from the Viville perfume house, located at 24 Avenue de l'Opéra in Paris, a grand 19th-century boulevard running from the Place de l'Opéra to the Palais Royal in the heart of the city. Signed 'PAL' (the pen name of Jean de Paleologue), this lithograph exemplifies the lush, decorative poster style that flourished in Paris around the 1890s–1900s.
