A Set of Six Early 20th Century Lithographs of Caricatures by Georges Goursat known as SEM

A set of six early 20th century lithographs of caricatures by Georges Goursat (1863-1934), known as Sem framed in a reeded frame hand-painted in Hermes orange and non-reflective glass.

Georges Goursat (1863-1934), known as Sem, attained a high level of success with his wonderful portrayals of Paris at the turn of the century. This outstanding caricaturist was a member of the Salon des Humoristes and an officer of the Legion of Honor. His works offer us glimpses into Parisian high society at the turn of the century. Sem's unique talent made his work very identifiable, particularly because of the essential sobriety of his composition, in which his characters usually emerge from a white or plain background rather than being more obvious caricatures. Sem captured the spirit of the subject and in turn produced images that were true to life.

The price is for the set, but they are available individually for £385.
