Additional Details: The last major event dedicated to Chardin was held in 1979 at the Grand Palais in Paris, celebrating his timeless masterpiece, Girl with Racket and Shuttlecock. This striking, oversized poster was created to promote the exhibition, with copies displayed throughout Paris and a limited number available for sale in the museum shop. Its rarity lies in the fact that few were made accessible to the public, making it a sought-after collectible today. Though not created or designed by Chardin himself, this poster serves as a fascinating historical artifact, capturing the era’s approach to museum advertising before the digital age. It highlights how institutions relied on bold, eye-catching visuals to draw attention to their exhibitions. Framed or displayed, it offers both a glimpse into Chardin’s artistry and a piece of cultural history. Special pricing available for delivery.
