Although unsigned, it is assumed that Maurice Utrillo (1883 - 1955) created this maquette that features an elegant woman intently focusing on her billiards game. The way the artist uses her dress to form part of the border of the image shows the influence of the Art Nouveau style, which influenced graphic and decorative art of the day. A maquette is a small painting that would be used as a proposal for a poster design. If selected, the maquette would be reproduced in a larger scale by a print shop. This maquette is a mixture of pencil and gouache on illustration board and is one of a kind.
Maurice Utrillo was a prolific fine artist from the notorious neighborhood of Montmartre, Paris. He created only a few commercial posters.
This is an Original Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction. This poster was printed on heavyweight paper and is in excellent condition, and has been mounted onto cardboard.
We guarantee the authenticity of all of our posters.

What People Are Saying...

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.
