Der Rauch, dann die Flamme

Französische Grafik 1893–1895, 1895

This is a drawing featuring an ethereal scene of smoke turning into flames with swirling patterns. The smoke starts from the bottom left and transforms into sweeping flame-like shapes towards the top right. A figure reaches into the flames. The colors transition from navy to orange and yellow. Text on the right side provides details about a theatrical production, potentially a play titled "La Fumée, puis la Flamme" at Le Théâtre Libre during the 1895-1896 season. The artwork reflects elements of Art Nouveau with its flowing lines and organic forms.
