Title: La Promise. First Edition of the Lithograph
Description: Paris: L'Estampe Moderne, publiée en juin 1898. Lithograph tipped onto support sheet. 245 x 240 x mm. Tissue guard with descriptive text attached at edge. 13 11/16 × 9 3/4 in. (34.8 × 24.8 cm) Fernand Louis Gottlob was born in Paris in 1873. He studied under the painter-decorator Armand Félix Marie Jobbé-Duval (1821–1889). He was also taught by Laporte and G. Fuchs. He became a painter, lithographer, caricaturist, commercial artist, illustrator and graphic designer for song scores. He created portraits, illustrations for books and caricatures that appeared in popular magazines in Paris including Le Rire, Le Journal Amusement and Le Sourire. His work began to be shown in the official salons in 1891... Gottlob was among the artists who contributed to L'Estampe Moderne, a limited edition series of portfolios of high-quality lithographs that was published monthly from May 1897 and April 1899. His work first appeared in L'Assiette au Beurre in the second issue, on 11 April 1901. He became a member of the Cornet Society in 1904 and, between then and his death designed twelve menus for the society. He died in Paris in 1935.... Gottlob's 1900 poster for the 2nd Exposition of Painter-Lithographers on the Rue Drouot in Paris shows a strong influence of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec in its composition. A woman is in front of a large illuminated window, and the dramatic back-lighting emphasizes the dark forms of her dress and hat. He created relatively few posters in his life, but this exposition of posters was one in which he participated. In addition to lithographs and portraits, he painted cityscapes of Paris and landscapes of Normandy and Brittany... In one of Gottlob's poignant images for the Assiette au Beurre he shows a mother with her children during a snowstorm, in front of the window of a bakery. The mother is explaining, "Ça, mon enfant, c'est du pain" ("That is bread, my child"). In 1916 he designed a poster for the Ligue Souvenez-vous! which they produced in large numbers and also used as a stamp. IL'Estampe Moderne was published monthly between 1897 and 1899 at the Imprimerie Champenois of Paris. Each edition cost 3.50 francs and contained four original lithographic prints in wrappers designed by Mucha. Around two thousand of each of the 24 fascicles were produced, bringing affordable prints, largely in an Art Nouveau style, to the masses. It is not to be confused with another publication of the same name which was published over five fascicles between November 1895 and March 1896 by Loÿs Delteil. .
