"For his own exhibition at the Salon des Cents, Grasset shows
a chestnut-tressed artiste soulfully contemplating a tall-stemmed
flower. A prose that is almost medieval in it's conception, and provides
us with a rare glimpse straight into the heart of the moment when
observation becomes inspiration"(Rennert,
PAI-XXX, 233)
"The Salon of the Hundred, was a small gallery on the premises
of the magazine 'La Plume' where promising designers displayed their
work. The publication's marketing arm, Editions d'Art, also issued
these posters and decorative panels in various editions, often on
quality paper as art for the home
there were 43 in all"
