La Femme au Perroquet – L’Estampe Moderne

La Femme au Perroquet by A. Yank, published in Paris as part of the celebrated series L’Estampe Moderne (1897–1899). This series presented original color lithographs by leading artists of the time, issued monthly in portfolios of four plates. Each print bore the blind stamp (dry stamp) of the publisher, Imprimerie Champenois, ensuring authenticity.

L’Estampe Moderne was directed by Charles Masson and Henri Piazza and printed by Champenois, the Paris workshop also known for producing posters by Alphonse Mucha and other masters of Art Nouveau. Collectors subscribed to receive a total of 100 plates across the series, each showcasing contemporary developments in fine art lithography.

The present plate, La Femme au Perroquet, is a richly detailed Art Nouveau composition that reflects the elegance and decorative refinement of the era. It carries the distinctive blind stamp of the publisher at the lower corner.

The print measures approximately 12 × 16 in. (30 × 40 cm) and is preserved in excellent condition.
