EDITORS COMMENTS
Affiche pour l'„Eau de Sirènes" is a stunning lithograph print created by the renowned French artist Jules Cheret in 1899. Published by Imprimerie Chaix in Paris, this beautiful piece is a prime example of the Art Nouveau movement that swept through Europe during the Belle Époque. The title of the print, "Eau de Sirènes," translates to "Water of the Sirens," referring to the mythological creatures known for their enchanting songs that lured sailors to their deaths. The image features four elegant women, each in various stages of undress, relaxing in a luxurious spa setting. The women are surrounded by steam and water, evoking a sense of tranquility and rejuvenation. The women's bodies are depicted in naturalistic, nude forms, showcasing the artist's mastery of the human form. The women's faces are serene, and their expressions suggest a sense of contentment and pleasure. The print is characterized by its vibrant colors, with red and other hues used to add depth and dimension to the image. The lettering is in both upper and lower case, with the title "Eau de Sirènes" written in elegant script, adding to the overall aesthetic of the piece. The background is adorned with intricate, flowing lines and patterns, typical of the Art Nouveau style. This print is a valuable addition to any art or history collection, showcasing the beauty and elegance of the Belle Époque era. It is a testament to Jules Cheret's mastery of the lithography technique and his ability to capture the essence of the human experience. The New York Public Library's Wallach Division Picture Collection is fortunate to have this piece in its vast collection of heritage art and vintage prints.
