This is an original pochoir illustration that specially accompanied a rare war issue of La Gazette du Bon Ton, 1917. Drian executed 6 designs for this issue, 3 of them featuring the Tricolore; 2, including this one, were in more muted tones; Le Communique was study in red and black. Each image of course delivers a fabulous rendering of the lastest fashion and establishes Drian solidly as leader in the dramatic and elegant illustrative style that would later influence great contemporary artists such as Gruau and Downton.
