This pochoir print, Très Parisien, 1926, No. 2, Pl. 1: Création BRANDT - HERODIADE, by G-P. Joumard presents a stylish figure in a pastel palette, immediately evoking the elegance of 1920s Parisian fashion. The composition is structured around a central figure, adorned in a light yellow crepe dress, complete with turquoise and pearl embellishments. Joumard employs simple, clean lines to define the figure, emphasizing the dress's flowing silhouette, which creates a sense of movement and modernity. The layering of the blue shawl adds depth to the otherwise flat picture plane. The muted color scheme is typical of the era and draws the eye to the texture implied in the depiction of the dress and shawl. These elements combine to create a visual experience that is both refined and subtly provocative, reflecting the period's shift towards new aesthetic values and the celebration of modern femininity.
