The Beatles by Richard Avedon Pop Art Poster Set (1967) – Original 4-Poster Set
This is the original 1967 Pop Art Beatles poster set created by photographer Richard Avedon for STERN Magazine in Germany. These are the authentic first printings issued in 1967, not later reproductions. The complete set includes four color portraits of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. (The separate black-and-white banner was published as an optional fifth poster and is not included here.)
Each of the four original posters has been professionally mounted on linen. They represent one of the most famous examples of 1960s Pop Art and a landmark in music-related design. The psychedelic color treatment and iconic compositions remain instantly recognizable worldwide.
Our gallery has sold and loaned original Avedon Beatles sets to institutions including the Museum of Fine Arts in Montreal, the Hard Rock Cafe Archives in Orlando, and the Museum of the City of Music in Paris. These works continue to stand as symbols of the cultural energy of the 1960s.

Theatre de l’opera Carnaval by Cheret for Les Affiches Illustrees 1894
Original stone-lithograph plate printed circa 1896 at Imprimerie Chaix (Paris) for Les Affiches Illustrées. This reduced-format lithograph reproduces Jules Chéret’s exuberant poster for the 1892 Paris Carnival at the Théâtre de l’Opéra.
The annual Opéra masquerade balls were among the most anticipated events of Belle Époque Paris, drawing fashionable crowds for evenings of music, dance, and masked revelry. Chéret’s design captures the carnival’s spirit of joy and festivity: a central female figure in motion, surrounded by swirling ribbons and celebratory text, rendered in his signature palette of vivid reds, yellows, and blues. As with many of his works, Chéret conveys both the elegance and the playful abandon of Parisian nightlife in the 1890s.
Les Affiches Illustrées (1896–1899) was a pioneering collector’s journal, presenting reduced-format lithographs of important contemporary posters. Produced under Chéret’s supervision at the Chaix atelier, each plate replicated the technique of the original affiche, allowing subscribers to own authentic Belle Époque poster art in a more practical format.
