Original pochoir from the rare series "The War Years, 1914-1919" published as a special edition of Modes et Manieres d'Aujourd'hui (1920) Plate No. X. Each Plate was dated according to the "War Year" depicted and each was paired with a poem by Henry Jacques. Here the tri-color abounds in celebration at the 11th hour of the 11th day - Nov.1918. The men are still at the front, the rest of the world still sporting the drab colours of a long war, but there is joy on every street and a promise that Paris will once again lead the world in style and fashion!
