Description: Artist: MARCEL VERTES (French, 1895 - 1961) Title: "Art for Spring Fantasia" - 1950 - Searching for the Right ShoeMedium: Original Lithograph on colored laid paperSignature: Signed in the plateEdition: Limited Edition of 2000, not individually numberedSize: About 12 x 9 inchesPrinter: Artist Equity Funds, Inc.Publisher: Artist Equity AssociationNotes: Part of the Improvisations Portfolio (for the Spring Fantasia Masquerade Ball in New York) published by the Artist Equity Association. The portfolio consisted of advertisements for local New York City businesses where each advertisement was an original lithograph: "Each page was designed by the artist directly on the litho plate, thus making this a collection of original lithographs."This Original Lithograph was produced for an annual art event in the 1950's for local businesses and major corporations largely based in New York. Historically important for corporate archivists, these are extremely rare to locate and are virtually unseen individually. The original lithographs were produced in only one edition, and included just 2,000. These lithographs are perhaps the most unique, rare, important advertising collectibles that exist for businesses and corporations.About the Artist: Marcel Vertès (born Marcell Vértes) was an influential French artist, costume designer, and illustrator of Hungarian-Jewish origins. He won two Academy Awards (Best Art Direction and Best Costume Design) for his work on the 1952 film Moulin Rouge, about the life and times of artist Henri De Toulouse-Lautrec. Vertès also did the original murals at the Café Carlyle in the Carlyle Hotel in New York City and the Peacock Alley at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York. He designed all the sets for Ringling Bros.-Barnum & Bailey Circus in 1956. He was chief illustrator for Vogue and Harper's Bazaar and was made an officer of the Legion of Honor in 1955, when he designed for ballets at the Paris Opera. His influence for French flair and vibrancy is still visible in today's advertising and marketing designs.
