Cond A.
It wasn’t often that portrait painter and illustrator Bloch made forays into poster art, but when he did, he definitely proved his mettle in the medium. He also displayed a taste for women in extravagant dress when ever he did exercise his lithographic option. Case in point, his design for the Raoul clothiers, a Cambrain purveyor of women’s wear whose taste for feminine dress obviously leaned towards the excessive as well. No doubt, the rendered emerald effluvium seen here was a promotional gift for the clients of this apparel boutique.
