Salon des cent 1897

This 1897 poster by Louis Rhead advertises the "Salon des Cent" an exhibition of 60 new posters in Paris. Featuring a woman holding a paintbrush and palette, it embodies the Art Nouveau style with its bold colors, stylized floral motifs, and decorative lines. The woman's pose and the overall composition create a sense of movement and dynamism. It's an example of the vibrant graphic arts movement of the late 19th century, showcasing a new approach to advertising and artistic expression.
