"Maindron makes it clear that it was Cheret who invented 'placards
decoratifs'…there is nothing to say about these designs other
that they are perfect"(pp.178-79).
Abdy calls these four decorative panels "triumphs of colour
and printing" (p.31).
Being freed in them from having to sell a product, Cheret let his
imagination soar- and these light-footed nymphs are the first clear
examples of what was to adorn the walls of Paris for the next decade;
the unabashedly hedonistic, carefree spirits that became known as
'Cherettes'" (Rennert,
PAI-XXVI, 262A)
