"A children's attraction at the 1889 World's Fair in Paris, 'The Land of
the Fairies,' could serve virtually as a theme for much of Cheret's work, It's
these happy, soaring fairies that remain his most memorable legacy. A delicate
explosion of yellows, reds and blues. (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) |
