 Poster art - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The popularity of poster art was such that in 1884 a major exhibition was held in Paris.
In France, posters became a work of art that transformed the thoroughfares of Paris into the "art galleries of the street." Their commercial success was such that some of the artists were in great demand and theatre stars personally selected their own favorite artist to do the poster for an upcoming performance.
Poster artists such as Théophile Steinlen, Albert Guillaume, Leonetto Cappiello and others became important figures of their day, their art form transferred to magazines for advertising as well as for social and political commentary.
