A Circa Early 1900s Vintage French Art Print (measures 30" x 37" [76 x 94 cm]) (Learn More) Emile Bayard was a French illustrator from the 1850s to the 1890s. He is best-known for his illustration of Cosette from Les Miserables by Victor Hugo (this artwork has been re-printed and used for many stage productions of Les Miserables). At the end of the 19th century, with a growing interest in photography displacing documentary drawing, Bayard moved to illustrating novels, including Uncle Tom's Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe, L'Immortel by Alphonse Daudet, Robinson Crusoe by Daniel De Foe, and From the Earth to the Moon by Jules Verne. While there had been art depicting spaceflight and alien worlds prior to 1865, they were based heavily on mysticism as opposed to science. Bayard's artwork accompanying From the Earth to the Moon is considered among the first space art of a scientific nature. Artist: Emile Bayard Condition: good. There is a large horizontal tear at right and there is some tattering around the edges of the poster with some repaired with tape from the back. There is some uneven discoloration and creasing throughout the poster. The poster is otherwise in generally nice condition, especially considering its age. Learn More about condition grades
