������������������������������������������������������<br />

Located in the south of France, Céret is famous for<br />

its Museum of Modern Art, which houses paintings<br />

by Chagall, Matisse, Herbin, and Soutine. <strong>The</strong> crux<br />

of its modern collection, however, centers around an<br />

impressive array of works by Picasso, including his<br />

������������������������������������������������������<br />

from 1911 to 1912, and Café Pablo in the town is<br />

dedicated to him. Forty-plus years after he resided<br />

there, the Musée held an exhibition of his ceramic<br />

works and Picasso designed this poster to promote<br />

it, a sunshiny burst of creative elation executed in<br />

traditional red and yellow Catalan hues.<br />

A sophisticated, straight forward design that visually<br />

links the Salon with its sister publication La Plume. In<br />

the background, a woman peruses the latest creations<br />

by artists represented at the Salon, while the lady<br />

facing us views the same images within the pages of<br />

the magazine. On the bottom, it notes that La Plume<br />

���������������������������������������������������<br />

it was technically the other way around, wherein La<br />

Plume used the Salon as a marketing outlet for the art<br />

it published. <strong>The</strong> exhibitions lasted until 1900, while<br />

the magazine stayed in circulation until 1913.<br />

�������������������<br />

A charter member of the Salon d’Automne, Redon<br />

employed a lighthearted touch that showed up in his<br />

contributions to Parisian humor magazines as well as<br />

his paintings and posters. However, there’s nothing<br />

humorous about the sensual ultra-femininity that<br />

he uses to promote a musical evening of poetry and<br />

pulchritude at the Casino de Paris featuring Liane de<br />

��������������������������������������������������<br />

Paris’ most beautiful and notorious courtesans. Born<br />

Anne Marie Chassaigne and raised in a nunnery,<br />

Pougy became a noted demimondaine and rival<br />

of La Belle Otero. Noted more for her looks than<br />

her talent, Sarah Bernhardt, faced with the task of<br />

teaching Liane to act, advised her that when she was<br />

on stage, it would be best to keep her “pretty mouth<br />
