With an Asian flair, Steinlen created this lively poster, advertising a National Academy of Music ballet production. Using muted ochre tones and mossy greens, the famed printmaker brightened this composition with a splash of bold orange across the bottom, highlighting the names of the production's creative team. Note the male dancers costumed as women parading across the stage.
Estimated Value $700 - 800.
