CYCLES COMIOT — Théophile-Alexandre Steinlen
Original stone-lithograph plate issued in 1899 at Imprimerie Chaix (Paris) for Les Maîtres de l’Affiche. This plate (no. 183) features Steinlen’s celebrated design for Cycles Comiot, created at the height of the Belle Époque cycling boom.
The poster highlights the exhilaration of modern speed: a rider charges forward on a Comiot bicycle while geese run for cover the composition filled with humor and energy. Steinlen’s strong diagonals and expressive line work capture both motion and excitement, while appealing to the new culture of cycling that swept through Paris in the 1890s.
Les Maîtres de l’Affiche (1895–1900) was a prestigious subscription series directed by Jules Chéret, presenting small-format original lithographs of the era’s most important posters. Printed at Chaix on fine wove paper and issued with the blindstamp, these plates gave collectors direct access to authentic works by leading poster artists, including Steinlen, Mucha, Toulouse-Lautrec, and Chéret himself.

Original stone-lithograph plate issued in 1899 at Imprimerie Chaix (Paris) for Les Maîtres de l’Affiche. This plate (no. 197) presents Adolfo Hohenstein’s celebrated poster for the Italian opera Iris, composed by Pietro Mascagni.
Premiered in Rome in 1898, Iris quickly spread to the great opera houses of Europe, admired for Mascagni’s rich score and exotic subject matter. Hohenstein, often called the “father of Italian poster art,” created the striking visual campaign. His design for Iris blends Symbolist and Art Nouveau influences: a graceful female figure radiates light and mystery, surrounded by decorative motifs that suggest both the opera’s dramatic themes and its lush Orientalist setting.
