"A lovely young woman with a floral garland announces the Flower
Show in Luchon, an attractive and lively town that is still one of
the most fashionable resorts in the French Pyrenees, with sulphurous
and mildly radioactive springs."
(Rennert, PAI-XXXI, 392)
"The achievement of Cheret was to create a world of explosive
happiness, and to paste it on the walls of Paris. As a painter he
will be remembered for what Huysmans calls his 'spirit of nervous
gaiety', as a lithographer for his superb technique, and as a poster
artist for being the ancestor of all modern advertising." (Abdy
p.36)
