Description
"Rose et Noir" Commentary on Social Drinking Triple Triptych by Paul Iribe
This rare Art Deco collection titled "Rose et Noir" is a group of three framed triptychs, comprising nine lithographic images by Paul Iribe. Each haunting vignette serves as a commentary on social drinking, with a recurring motif of cocktail shakers that symbolize the growing cocktail culture of the early 20th century. The narrative illustrates the unsettling effects of American cocktails on a newly married couple, blending social critique with striking modernist design. Included with the lithographs is a booklet by René Benjamin, Dialogue Moderne en Trois Temps et Trois Cocktails, along with the original portfolio cover, published by Parisian wine merchant Établissements Nicolas Dessins (France).
