Women's sports/Byrrh/Parity. The most beautiful... - Lot 157 - Vermot et Associés
Women's sports/Byrrh/Parity. The most beautiful sports postcard of the great artistic contest launched by Byrrh in 1902-1903, to promote its Quinquina Tonique, is probably that of Elbert Launay. She finished 3rd out of 112, but she deserves much better, both for her harmony and for her commitment, and for the outfits that reflect the fashion. What do we retain from this frieze of five sportsmen full of joy? That there are three women, and only two men! And that the artist has cleverly matched disciplines and capital letters: the cyclist wears the B, the sailor brandishes the Y of Yachting, the rower shoulders the R of Rowing. A success. As for the two guys, one is a rugby player and the other a weightlifter...It's the Byrrh farandole...New. 9X14.
