Collecting posters isn’t a contemporary concept. Almost as soon as the works began to be printed in large, colorful formats in the 1880s, they were appreciated by connoisseurs. But it was the print collectors who started the poster craze of the period, and it was the print dealers, such as Arnould, who catered to them by stocking posters and issuing catalogues of them. In 1896, Arnould issued his famous Catalogue d’Affiches artistiques, with cover by Toulouse-Lautrec, which included three posters by Noury, selling from one to five francs each. In this poster, two matrons put their heads together to make a buying decision, sporting the large puffed sleeves, long gloves and confectionary chapeaux that were fashionable at the time. Noury was born and grew up in Elbeuf where his grandfather was founder and director of the local museum. Although his primary interests were painting and drawing nature subjects, he created several evocative posters of the era.
