Alice Soulie - Domergue
(116cm x 160cm)
Alice Soulie is a 1926 French cabaret entertainment poster by Jean-Gabriel Domergue. The poster features Alice Soulie, a cabaret performer who was also rumored to be a transvestite. Soulie is presented with short blonde hair and long pearl rope necklace holding a large black feather fan. Like many performance posters of the era, a generic image would have been commissioned to which a banner would be added with the performer's scheduled appearances and locations to the top or bottom of the poster.
Jean-Gabriel Domergue (1889-1962) was well known for his portraits of Parisian women and is regarded by some as the father of the "Pin-Up." He had a particular interest in fashion and designed haute couture clothing for Paul Poiret.

If there's anything you want to know about posters, vintage or more modern, there's nothing Mr Ross doesn't know. His open and friendly manner helps one to choose the most suitable material whether for decoration, investment or whatever... I can't recommend him highly enough.

Just wanted to say thanks for the poster. You sent it on Thursday and it was delivered the following Monday (nearly quicker than it took us to get home) to our house in Perth, Australia. We have just had it framed. We love it; it goes perfectly with the room.

The Ross Gallery has the best selection of vintage posters I have ever seen. Seriously, if you are in the market, they are the people. And, they know everything there is to know about the posters' provenance.
