"This poster for the 5th annual 1897 exhibition of the Artistic
Club of Schaerbeek, has the inclusion of the quintessential Livemont
female type. Seen in profile, with full lips and aquiline nose, she
wears a metallic floral headband, whose blossoms are intertwined with
her tresses. She mediates upon a statuette of her likeness which she
holds in her hand" (Rennert,
PAI-XXXI, 392)
"Livemont was the foremost Belgian practitioner of the Art
Nouveau style. His posters invite comparison to Mucha, but it should
be remembered that he had already produced several posters by the
time Mucha created his first. Above all, Livemont was a skilled
lithographer, a quality evident in the subtle colour gradations
and detail of this sensual poster" (Rennert
XXIX-454)
