Framed and signed watercolor: fabric study by Georges Lepape. 2 other paintings of the same theme are visible in my ads. Dimensions without frame: approximately 20 x 29cm. George Alexandre Lapape (1887 - 1971), is a French fashion designer, poster engraver and illustrator. He is particularly representative of the Art Deco era. In 1910 he exhibited at the Salon d'Automne, and became friends with the couturier Paul Poiret. He then collaborated with the major fashion newspapers of the time: Harper's Bazaar, Vanity Fair, Femina, Vogue, Les Feuillets d'Art.
