Description
This is an original, authentic late 1890s vintage poster lithograph by French humorist Jules Abel Faivre (1867-1945), known here as THE TABLE LAMP BUTT.
This fun and provocative untitled artwork shows a figure standing on two legs with a large butt, the image transforming into a table lamp with a polka-dot shade and pink bow, with ribbons of blue smoke floating from the top. Faivre had a great sense of humor when this image was created, blending erotic cheekiness with Belle Époque fantastical illustration.
Printed as an original stone lithograph in the late 1890s, circa 1898, French school. Technique: stone lithography on period wove paper with delicate hand coloring in pink, blue, and cream. Signed on the stone, Abel Faivre, lower right.
Condition: Fine condition, vintage original, previously owned. Not linen-backed, unbacked paper, ready to frame. Humorous Faivre metamorphosis images are scarce and highly collectible for erotic satire and French poster collectors.
Own an authenticated vintage poster from an IVPDA-certified gallery dealer. Original Faivre humor prints document Belle Époque Parisian wit.
