Le Bonheur du Jour ou Les Graces à la Mode: Chez la Marchande de Pavots. 1920

"Le Bonheur du Jour ou Les Graces à la Mode: Chez la Marchande de Pavots." (1920) by Henri Reidel is a striking Art Deco illustration that portrays a group of figures lounging in a lavishly decorated interior. The scene is set against a vibrant red background with stylized plants and a prominent black and blue dragon. The composition emphasizes the sensuality and decadence of the era through the languid poses of the figures and the opulent decor. The illustration demonstrates Reidel's mastery of line and color, creating a distinct sense of dynamism and elegance in this quintessential Art Deco work.
