Abstract:
Advertisement for Phosphatine Falières. Card features a color illustration of an art nouveau style woman in a Japanese kimono. To the right and left of the center image is a poem by Maurice Vaucaire. In the middle of the poem is a Japanese-like woman dancing with blue butterflies. The woman is pale-skinned, with her brown hair tied up like an oiran with pink flowers and hair sticks. She is standing, facing down, and holding her arms above her head holding two sprigs with oranges. Her dress is a red kimono opened at the chest, tied with a green obi around the waist. Around the woman and poem is a border of yellow pillars with two green dragons at the top and oranges at the bottom. On the back of the card is a border made of pumpkin vines and flowers, two pumpkins in the bottom left corner. Above the pumpkins stands a little girl with dark hair looking into a jar. Next to her is a small dark dog. All verso text and images in red coloring.
