G. SEM LE PROCES VERBAL PAULUS.

49x33 inches. Chaix, Paris. Condition B-: restored losses, repaired tears and overpainting in image and margins. A soldier in blue is walking with a young red-head in pink, through a field of yellow, red and blue flowers. A very early work by Sem, more in keeping with the art of Jules Cheret than the Cappiello-esque style of caricature which he eventually adapted; lettering in red and black.
