“The advertised booklet was a guide to Paris attractions published by Ed. Sagot, which de Feure shows in the hand of a woman traveling alone and wishing to sample the pulse of the city. As always, the artist manages to suggest hidden depths. Although looking at the merry throng, the figure remains a bit apart, oddly aloof, and slightly mysterious” (Gold, p. 58). DeFeure, the consummate designer, created not only this poster, but the fashionable garb on the arresting viewer.
