Erté Art Deco Fine Art Exhibition Poster, 'Top Hat'

This is a framed exhibition poster featuring the artwork of Romain de Tirtoff, known as Erté. The image, titled 'Top Hat', exemplifies the Art Deco revival style popular in the late 20th century. The central graphic depicts a stylized, elongated figure in a dynamic pose, set against a dark circular background and a metallic gold-toned rectangular border. The color palette is striking, utilizing high-contrast blacks, golds, and vibrant oranges and yellows in the figure's flowing hair or headpiece. Below the central image, the name 'ERTÉ' is prominently displayed in a custom Art Deco typeface. The lower text credits the publisher as 'Mirage Editions, Inc.' in Santa Monica, California, in cooperation with Grosvenor Gallery. The poster appears to be a high-quality lithograph or serigraph with metallic ink finishes. It is professionally mounted with a black matte that provides significant visual depth, housed in a contemporary silver-toned fluted frame with beaded interior edging. The condition appears excellent with no visible foxing, fading, or moisture damage, although slight reflections on the glass are present. The Addison Hodges context likely refers to the designer or a related collection provenance. This piece reflects the sophisticated craftsmanship and highly ornamental aesthetic characteristic of Erté's influential 1970s and 80s commercial art output.
