Émile Berchmans was one of the first artists from the Walloon
region of Belgium to devote himself to posters. He exhibited some
of his decorative designs at La Libre Esthetique in 1895, and the
following year he started to produce posters, marked by their use
of simple lines and flat color planes. (Rennert,
PAI)
Émile Berchmans for his part, astonishes with his power
and vigour, and his output of posters was considerable…we can
be sure to find solid draftsmanship with strong outlines, good sense
of composition and accented colours. His most famous successes are
of an astonishing modernism... He left us a legacy of strong and vivid
images that have survived the passage of time without a wrinkle. (Paris
1900, p.152)
Mucha Cover
Not unlike the Maitre de L'Affiche series, L'Estampe
Moderne was a portfolio printed between 1897-98, published
by Imprimerie Champenois, Paris, contained 24 monthly portfolios,
with four original lithographs in each. Each commissioned only for
this series. Some of the contributing artists included Mucha, Rhead,
Meunier, Ibels, Steinlen, Willette and Grasset.
