Parc de Bagatelle 1991 – Voitures de Stars (Automobiles Classiques et Louis Vuitton) – Razzia, 1991 – Original Serigraph on Linen
This rare original poster was created by Razzia (Gérard Courbouleix-Dénériaz) in 1991 for the “Automobiles Classiques et Louis Vuitton” Concours d’Élégance held at the Parc de Bagatelle on September 7–8 of that year. The elegantly rendered faces of Clark Gable and Rita Hayworth, paired with a classic automobile in the foreground, evoke the glamour of Old Hollywood and vintage motoring at its finest.
Printed in Paris by Caza using serigraph lithography, this is the first edition—not one of the artist’s later digital inkjet prints. The piece measures 20 × 30 inches (51 × 76 cm), is unlined, and remains in excellent “A” condition—vivid, crisp, and collector-ready.
