It was an inspirational image for a perfume under the Regaud name for a fragrance called "Feerie", the French word for "fairyland" or "enchantment". It was to captivate the imagination of women seeking escape from the harsh realities of the time. It captures a magical, dreamy whimsy of elegance and allure. It is youthful, uplifting and refreshing. This is a RARE image as it had limited circulation at the time. Jean-Gabriel Domergue's works are highly collectible and are sold at international galleries and auctions. He is best known as a French painter of portraits of women from the 1920s-1930s. He painted over 3000 images of aristocratic Parisian women. His images are easily recognizable as they have long slender "swanlike" necks; they are thin, airy, pin-up like, with a feeling of longing and desire. This image captures the essence of Domergue. Please also note the details of the broder edges as they add interest to the lithograph. The lithograph is in pristine condition. Signed by Domergue in lower right corner. Measures 7 x 8.5 inches. Comes affixed to acid free paper, ready for matting/framing. See less
