Color PaletteThis small poster for the February issue of Au Quartier Latin was intended to be posted on one of the ubiquitous Parisian kiosques, where newspapers and magazines were (and are still) sold.
"Paris without its Chérets would be Paris without one of its pronounced characteristics-Paris, moreover, with its gaiety of aspect materially diminished. The great masses of variegated colour formed by Chéret's posters greet one joyously as one passes every hoarding, smile at one from the walls of every café, arrest one before the windows of every kiosque."
-Charles Hiatt, 1896
