Les Affiches Etrangeres was another idea of Jule Cheret to give to the public a book containing 65 color plates and many black and white illustrations. The poster collecting frenzy that started in France in 1895 made this book of famous posters by artists outside of France. The plates were all done with the permission of the artist and by way of stone lithography at the Chaix imprimerie in Paris in 1897. Artists such as Toulouse Lautrec, Mucha and Cheret and many others are represented in these plates.

Original stone-lithograph plate printed circa 1896 at Imprimerie Chaix (Paris) for Les Affiches Étrangères. This plate features Privat Livemont’s celebrated design for Absinthe Robette, a Belgian advertising poster that has become one of the most iconic images of Art Nouveau.
The image depicts a graceful young woman in flowing robes, holding aloft a glass of absinthe that catches the light, while stylized tendrils and ornamental patterns surround her. Livemont, often referred to as the “Belgian Mucha,” was renowned for his elegant depictions of women framed within decorative motifs. Absinthe Robette exemplifies his refined style and perfectly conveys the Belle Époque fascination with elegance, beauty, and the mystique of absinthe.
Les Affiches Étrangères (1896–1899) was a companion series to Les Affiches Illustrées, dedicated to showcasing important poster designs by international artists. Published under the direction of Jules Chéret at the Chaix atelier, these plates were printed in reduced format but retained the full stone-lithographic technique of the originals, making them prized collector’s items.

Confetti by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec for Les Affiches Étrangères, Chaix Imprimerie, 1897 (Stone Lithograph)
Jules Chéret created Les Affiches Étrangères at the Chaix Imprimerie to showcase international poster artists. His goal was to offer the public a book featuring 65 color plates and numerous black-and-white illustrations. The poster-collecting craze that began in France in 1895 increased demand for this collection. As a result, the book highlighted famous posters from artists outside France. Each artist approved their plate, and Chaix Imprimerie produced them using stone lithography in 1897. The collection includes works by Toulouse-Lautrec, Mucha, Chéret, and others. This lithograph is an opportunity to own an original piece created during Lautrec’s lifetime with his consent. Today, museums worldwide feature this work.
Toulouse-Lautrec designed the Confetti poster in 1894 as a lively advertisement for Palais de la Nouveauté, a Parisian company selling confetti. During that time, confetti was a popular item for carnival season and festive events.
This plate appears in Les Affiches Étrangères because, although Lautrec was a French artist, he designed the poster for a London-based company that produced confetti for festivals.
