Original 1897 cover for L’Estampe Moderne, designed by Alphonse (Alfons) Mucha and printed by L’Imprimerie Champenois, Paris. This monthly publication presented a series of fine art lithographs mailed directly to subscribers, each issue featuring four plates. The decorative cover, created by Mucha exclusively for the series, captures his elegant Art Nouveau style with soft lines, floral motifs, and harmonious composition.

Original Italian advertising poster promoting Amaro Valsesia, a traditional bitter digestivo produced in the Valsesia region of northern Italy. The design features a young woman in regional dress presenting a bottle of the liqueur, set before the distillery buildings of Agostino Brugo & C. Snow-covered Alpine peaks rise in the background, referencing the mountainous landscape where many of the herbs used in the production of the amaro were sourced.
Amaro, a category of Italian herbal liqueur traditionally enjoyed after meals, was widely advertised during the early twentieth century as both a digestive and a tonic. Posters such as this combined regional imagery with appealing figures to associate the product with the natural environment and traditions of northern Italy.

Original vintage exhibition poster created for Andy Warhol: Ten Marilyns at the Museum van Hedendaagse Kunst in Ghent, Belgium, in 1990. This poster was printed using imagery from Warhol’s famous Ten Marilyns silkscreen portfolio, one of his most recognized series dedicated to Marilyn Monroe.
Warhol began creating portraits of Monroe in the early 1960s, following her death in 1962, transforming her into one of the central icons of his Pop Art career. The Ten Marilyns portfolio condensed his fascination with celebrity, glamour, and repetition, themes that defined much of his work.

It remains highly collectible as an authentic 1990 printing, mounted on linen for preservation, in excellent condition.

The theatre was built in the 1st century BCE and is one of the oldest stone theatres in Roman Gaul. It continues to serve as a site for performances and cultural events.

He produced a number of posters for the PLM (Paris–Lyon–Méditerranée) railway company during the interwar period, promoting travel to the south of France. This lithograph highlights the enduring Roman heritage of Arles as a destination.
