Framed Jules Cheret (1836-1932) Art Nouveau advertising poster, "Pastilles Geraudel". Circa 1895. Cheret is known as the father of advertising posters in France.

For years to come, the unmistakable rococo silhouettes of his sprightly Parisiennes set the fashion for young women in Paris, who came to be called Chérettes.
