Item description
Rare, Highly Collectible, Original 1899 Wood Block print Cocorico Issue No. 2 Cover
? Artist, Theophile Alexandre STEINLEN ? The Famous "ROSTER" Cover
Original 1899 Cocorico No. 2 Cover ? Not a copy or a modern reprint.
Theophile Alexandre Steinlen (November 10, 1859 ? December 13, 1923), was a Swiss-born French Art Nouveau painter and printmaker.
Born in Lausanne, Steinlen studied at the University of Lausanne before taking a job as a designer trainee at a textile mill in Mulhouse in eastern France. In his early twenties he was still developing his skills as a painter when he and his new wife were encouraged by the painter Francois Bocion to move to the artistic community in the Montmartre Quarter of Paris. Once there, Steinlen was befriended by the painter Adolphe Willette who introduced him to the artistic crowd at Le Chat Noir that led to his commissions to do poster art for the cabaret owner/entertainer, Aristide Bruant and other commercial enterprises.
? A highly sought after illustrator, at the turn of the 19th century ?
New Conservation Framing ? Including Custom Silver Bronze Leaf Wood Frame, 8ply Museum Mat, UV Acrylic ? Wired and Ready to Hang.
COCORICO: The
painter Paul Boutigny, admirer and friend of Alphonse Mucha, decided to put on
the market at the end of the year 1898 the "most artistic and literary
humoristic journal" which takes the "defense of the Art Nouveau"
to be "luxurious but affordable". These are the words published as
the profession of faith of the first issue that came out of the press on
December 31 in Paris.
With regard to the
history of magazines, Cocorico stands out from the other media then on sale in
France: while L'Illustration and the Revue Illustree, via the Baschet family,
partly dominate the sector, there are few to propose resolutely under an
accessible form a showcase of artistic modernism, which was been breaking out all
over Europe for the past ten years. Cocorico offered a sample of original
images signed by emerging artists.
