Sight Height 25 in., Width 17.25 in. Framed Height 27.25 in., Width 19.25 in. Color offset lithograph exhibition poster published in 1956 for an exhibition of works by Raoul Dufy at the Musee des Beaux-Arts, Nancy, France. The composition features Dufys characteristic maritime imagery — a stylized shell floating over a vivid blue sea with expressive red reflection — rendered in his signature lyrical line and saturated color palette. The artists name appears prominently in bold script at the upper register, with exhibition details below. Printed after Dufys death (1953), this poster reflects the strong posthumous institutional recognition of the artists work during the mid-20th century.
