About This Item

1896. An engraved poster welcoming the new year of 1896. A naked woman representing 1896 is at the helm of a boat, which has the debris of 1895 in its wake. Tipped onto white backing cardboard. Signed in the plate A. Willette. To the bottom right is 'Phg V. Michel'. The debris of 1895 includes the words 'Panama' and 'Arton'. These appear to relate to Émile Arton, a Jewish financier who was arrested in November 1895 for his part in financing in the Panama crisis. Adolph Willette was strongly anti-Semitic. Poster is clean and tidy with no significant marks. Black and white. Overall in Very Good condition. Poster size: 610 x 460 mm (24 x 18 inches). Adolphe Léon Willette (1857–1926) was a French painter, illustrator, caricaturist, and lithographer, as well as an architect of the famous Moulin Rouge cabaret. Willette ran as an "anti-Semitic" candidate in the 9th arrondissement of Paris for the September 1889 legislative elections. Rare. Une affiche gravée accueillant le nouvel an 1896. Une femme nue représentant 1896 est à la barre d'un bateau, qui a dans son sillage les débris de 1895. Renversé sur carton blanc. Signé dans la planche A. Willette. En bas à droite se trouve 'Phg V. Michel'. Les débris de 1895 comprennent les mots « Panama » et « Arton ». Celles-ci semblent concerner Émile Arton, un financier juif arrêté en novembre 1895 pour son rôle dans le financement de la crise de Panama. Adolph Willette était fortement antisémite. L'affiche est propre et bien rangée, sans marques importantes. Noir et blanc. Dans l'ensemble en très bon état. Taille de l'affiche : 610 x 460 mm (24 x 18 pouces). Adolphe Léon Willette (1857-1926) était un peintre, illustrateur, caricaturiste et lithographe français, ainsi qu'un architecte du célèbre cabaret du Moulin Rouge.
