About the Item
Original lithograph by Poulbot of a scene from the first world war. This lithograph is numbered 36/50 and hand signed by the artist. Francisque Poulbot, born in Saint-Denis on February 6, 1879 and died in Paris on September 16, 1946, was a French poster artist, goguettier, draftsman and illustrator. From 1900, his drawings began to be published in the press. He settled in Montmartre and married, in February 1914, Léona Ondernard, before leaving for the front; however, he was discharged the following year. During the Great War, he signed posters and patriotic postcards, which earned him house arrest during the Second World War, under the German occupation. The neologism "poulbot" was created in reference to his numerous illustrations representing Parisian titis: street kids. An illustration of Gavroche, the famous character from Victor Hugo's novel Les Misérables, is a perfect example. He is also the originator of the couple of fetish dolls of the First World War Nénette and Rintin.

Francisque Poulbot
Francisque Poulbot was a French affichiste, draughtsman and illustrator. Born into a teaching family – his parents were both lecturers – Poulbot was the eldest of seven children. He was a gifted draughtsman, but shied away from the École des Beaux-Arts. From 1900, his drawings started to be published in the press. He moved to Montmartre, and in February 1914 married Léona Ondernard, before leaving for the front. He was however sent back the following year. During World War I, he drew patriotic posters and postcards, for which he was put under house arrest under the German occupation of France during World War II. In 1920–1921, being very attached to the Montmartre life, Poulbot became involved in creating the République de Montmartre, with his friends Adolphe Willette, Jean-Louis Forain and Maurice Neumont. In 1923 he opened a dispensary on the Rue Lepic to help the needy children of Montmartre. He died in Paris on 16 September 1946 and was buried in Montmartre Cemetery.
