SALOME.

1897. 21x16 inches. [Champenois, Paris] Condition A: stains along bottom edge; creases in margins and corners. Paper. Another plate from L'Estampe Moderne featuring Salome, in pale green and red, with an elaborate, bejeweled belt, dancing with an exotic lute against a patterned background. This appears to be an uncommon, deluxe, variant, printed on heavier paper and with much wider margins. "Two of Mucha's best prints appear in this series [L'Estampe Moderne]" (Rennert/Weill p. 158), for which Mucha also designed the monthly cover. Mucha R10c.
