The Russian-born, Paris-bred artist Erté (Romain de Tirtoff) is recognized as one of the foremost fashion and theatrical designers of the twentieth century. In 1968, when he produced his first lithographs, art lovers discovered that he had found another medium suited to his extraordinary talents.
This volume provides a fascinating sample of Erté's very best graphic work, offering every plate from his most popular collections The Alphabet (1977); The Numerals (1968); The Aces (1974); The Precious Stones (1969); and The Seasons (1970).
Each plate has been painstakingly reproduced from the autographed, limited-edition lithographs. A brief Preface offers bibliographic data.

- I'm an Erte fan for all seasons, so I love everything Erte. Problem is that if you want to frame any of it here in this book, you'll be forced to choose what you want, as the work here is featured double-sided
- This Erte` book really needs a better title, or maybe a sub-title (under the main title) because this book contains only the Erte`Graphics decribed by the previous commentator (eg the NUMBERS, ALPHABETS, etc).
This book is very thin, but the size of the book's page are very large, so the reader can see the posters in great detail! A good thing! I liked the over-size of each page very much. Also, the colors of the graphics are very bright and clear....almost psychedelic!
I think that if you are a lover of the graphic arts, or Erte`, or the history of graphic art in general,this is a good book to own as a supplement. This book is not complete, but would make a nice supplement to a book library.
(Also the price of this book is normally quite reasonable). - Another book my hubby ruined by throwing it in the shed! This shows what Erte can do with the Alphabet, Numbers, Seasons, Precious Stones! Great fun to look at you won't get bored! If Art Deco is your thing, you are gonna love this book!
- This small book presents Erte's (Romain de Tittoff) first lithographs, which he created in suites. His first album published in 1968 consisted of the numbers 0 through 9 (The Numerals). Other suites are The Alphabet (originally done in gouache-tempra), The Aces, The Precious Stones, and The Seasons. Although little background material is presented on Erte's conceptions behind these lithographs, publishers, dates, and edition numbers of each suite are given. Because there is no complete collection of Erte's work, this book is quite useful. It allows one quickly to identify these lithographs. For background information, consult another reference work such as Erte at Ninety-Five.
- The quality of these were a bit lackluster, not as crisp, so a little of the finer details were harder to see, but better than the images i was getting from the internet, so can't complain too much.
- Bought this as a gift for an Erte1 fan and she was deeply impressed by the crisp colors and excellent examples some of of the artist's most famous works. There's a similar collection that will make a great follow-up birthday present.
- I love Erte's work. He was one of my favorite artists. I bought this book of pictures thinking I can enjoy his art works from time to time.
I am very sorry....this book has 50 pictures including covers,,,,they are cheaply printed and registrations are off.
I have never seen a picture book this bad. Do not buy this book! Wast of money! - I found this looking for another copy of my gold standard Erte book. Would highly recommend this as an Erte Reference or for design elements and creative inspiration for artists in any medium. He was truly a genius.
