Front cover of ‘Falbalas & Fanfreluches, Almanach des Modes Présentes, Passées et Futures’ 1922 - 1926

This illustration by French artist George Barbier, created between 1922 and 1926, is the cover for the fashion almanac, *Falbalas & Fanfreluches*. The Art Deco aesthetic is evident in the bold geometric shapes and stylized figures. Two women, in fashions representative of the 1920s, are positioned at the top of black horns, while Cupid, the Roman god of love, stands between them, holding an arrow and bow. The piece has a lighthearted, whimsical feel, representative of Barbier's artistic style, known for its elegance and charm.
