Lithograph in BE by Alphonse Willette: "Fashion fitting spring 1917" (L'avarice)

Greed, one of the 7 deadly sins: representation of a bacchante, topless, dressed in vine leaves on the hips, not inclined to try on the new fashion collection of the spring catalog 1917... Lithograph printed on yellow background, signed and dated 1917 - dimension: 22 cm X 28 cm - without place, without publisher. Signed a. [adolphe] willette and dated in the plaque in the lower left margin. Note printed in the lower margin and facsimile of the artist's autograph signature in the lower right margin. "willette's art consists above all in a charming alliance of spirit and poetry, painting and song, allegory and life itself. If there is a lot of cheerfulness and carelessness on all the faces of his paintings, we also discover melancholy. (apollinaire).
