Halfsheet, La Danse des Libellules
is a vintage French poster created by Georges Dola in 1926 for a three-act operetta with music by composer Franz Lehár. The poster features an ethereal dancer with dragonfly wings, reflecting the operetta's title, which translates to "The Dance of the Dragonflies". The artwork is a notable example of the Art Deco style, known for its vibrant colors and a sense of movement and fantasy. Georges Dola, whose birth name was Edouard Vernier, was a painter, lithographer, and graphic designer known for his work on operetta posters and sheet music covers. The operetta was adapted for French audiences by Roger Ferreol and Max Eddy. |
