This is one of the Original Art Nouveau Lithographic Posters used for the premiere and production of the opera “Le Jongleur de Notre Dame”; it is NOT a reproduction. The poster was printed in 1904.

Artist: Georges Rochengrosse - Georges Antoine Rochegrosse was a member of the Societe des Artistes Francais. He became an officer of the Legion d"honeur in 1910.

The dust cover was removed from the back of the frame to allow inspection and to verify the authenticity and age of this piece. It has been re-applied and sealed but could be replaced if desired. The poster is backed onto acid-free foam core but is not mounted to the foam core. The paper is still in very good condition. No significant foxing or toning. Colors are slightly faded due to age, but still vibrant. See photos.
