EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration, titled "Grande Vedette" by Cuesta, graced the cover of Paris Plaisirs number 77, published in November 1928. The image transports us back to the Jazz Age of the 1920s, a time of artistic innovation and cultural excitement. The illustration showcases a glamorous star showgirl, her radiant smile and sparkling eyes captivating the audience. With her elegant posture and extravagant headdress adorned with feathers, pearls, and rhinestones, she embodies the allure and sophistication of the era's entertainment scene. The Art Deco influence is evident in the intricate design of the hall's architecture, with its geometric shapes, bold lines, and rich colors. The grandeur of the setting is further emphasized by the ornate chandeliers, the opulent curtains, and the luxurious velvet seats. The scene is set for an unforgettable performance, as the showgirl prepares to take center stage. The illustration's vibrant colors and dynamic composition capture the energy and excitement of the 1920s, a time when jazz music reigned supreme and the world was enchanted by the magic of the stage. This image is a testament to the enduring appeal of the Jazz Age and the art deco movement, and a reminder of the rich cultural history that continues to inspire us today.
