One of Pal’s scarcest posters, this sensuous design for a bath oil catches a young beauty in the midst of an intimate moment, her limpid eyes virtually inviting a tender caress. Pal often skates dangerously close to mawkishness, but manages to avoid it by a sheen of romantic gloss that somehow purifies and elevates his subjects into idealized fantasies. Rare!
