Original lithographic poster with art by André Lhote for exhibition at Musée National d’Art Moderne in Paris 1958.

André Lhote was a French painter, sculptor, art critic, and influential art educator. He was a prominent figure in the early 20th-century art scene and played a significant role in the development of Cubism and other modern art movements. Lhote's contributions as a painter, teacher, and theorist have left a lasting impact on the art world. Lhote's interpretation of Cubism sought to balance abstraction and representation. He believed that the principles of Cubism could be used to rejuvenate traditional forms and create harmonious compositions. His works often displayed a sense of order and structure.

One of Lhote's most significant contributions was his role as an art educator. In 1911, he established his own art school in Paris. He taught a diverse range of students, including future notable artists like Fernand Léger and Henri Cartier-Bresson.

The piece is framed with a hand silvered and patinated frame, with light passepartout, and placed on a gray background.
