"Pan" by Joseph Satler. A framed reproduction print from the famous Maitres de l'Affiche portfolio of the Belle Epoch era, this image of the mythical Pan peeking out from behind foliage, an unfurling blossom's filament springing forth the eponymous word, is one of the best known images of its time. Art Nouveau, all the rage in Europe and the U.S. by the 1890s, when color and line was loose and bold. Metropolitan areas became a reflection of this movement with oversized, bold lithographic posters designed by leading artists. Printer Jules Cheret saw an opportunity at this time and expanded his printing business to include Imprimerie Chaix, a publishing firm that reproduced the best commercial images of the time into smaller, collectible versions, available by subscription. From 1895 until 1900, over 90 artists were featured. This included Josef Sattler, who created the image for the German arts and literary magazine Pan in 1895. Professionally matted and framed. In good condition, visible and minimal wear from usage.
