Alphonse Mucha, Sarah Bernhardt Professionally Framed & Matted Print

Description: Alphonse Mucha, Sarah Bernhardt Professionally Framed & Matted Print - bottom left corner of frame has some damage (see last picture) ***This is the piece that sparked Mucha’s extensive career. It was made as the official advertisement for the 1895 production of Gismonda at the Théâtre de la Renaissance in Paris that was starred in and directed by the famous French actress, Sarah Bernhardt. Bernhardt is depicted as Gismonda, the title character, in a costume which the actress wore during the final scene of the play. Bernhardt was so happy with the poster, that she used it as her official poster during her US tour of Gismonda the following year and began a six-year working contract with Mucha.
