Erté Venus Moderne — Vintage ERTÉ Lithograph (1972)

Sensual, glamorous, and unmistakably Art Deco, Venus Moderne is a striking authentic vintage lithograph by the legendary Erté, whose visionary fashion illustrations and theatrical designs defined an era of elegance and sophistication.

Originally published in 1972 by Franco Maria Ricci in Parma, Italy, this genuine limited-edition vintage print was produced from a series of 2,000 numbered copies, with this particular example being copy number 390. A copy of the Certificate of Authenticity can be provided upon request.

The composition beautifully captures Erté’s signature aesthetic — elongated feminine form, stylized elegance, and dramatic couture-inspired detail — while the flowing pink plumes create a bold contrast against the warm bronze and jewel-toned accents. Simultaneously playful and sophisticated, the artwork radiates the theatrical glamour and decorative refinement that made Erté one of the most celebrated artists of the Art Deco movement.

Printed on high-quality paper with original inks, the lithograph retains exceptional clarity, vivid color saturation, and crisp detail. Presented in excellent vintage condition, Venus Moderne would look extraordinary professionally framed either as a standalone statement piece or displayed within a curated Erté collection.

A refined acquisition for collectors of Art Deco, fashion illustration, theatrical design, and vintage decorative arts.
