CARICATURE Georges BASTIA Mistinguette monkey, Original signed lithograph

  
Mistinguett with a monkey smoking her cigarette, 1947. On Marais vellum paper, 36.5 x 28 cm. Limited edition of 450 copies, not numbered.

Excellent condition, small defects on the edge of the sheet. This is indeed the original edition and not a modern reproduction. Georges BASTIA is a famous caricaturist from the 40s/60s known for his drawings of celebrities represented as animals, which led Marcel Achard to call him the "Buffoon of caricature".
