Gaspar Camps
Beautiful lithograph on silk made by Gaspar Camps - Evening Hydrangea

Circa 1895

About the Item

Beautiful lithograph on silk made by Gaspar Camps (1874 - 1942) who was a Spanish illustrator and painter, influenced by modernism and advertising. Hydrangeas were first identified in Japan, and the flower's name means "water vessel." Camps' maiden, in Japanese adornment, clasps the flowers across her shoulders while smiling with an enigmatic directness. She appears the embodiment of the hydrangea's symbolism: a touch of vanity, perhaps, but grateful that you understand her, sincere and heartfelt. That's why the hydrangea is the traditional 4th wedding anniversary flower: the softening of vanity and boastfulness into an enduring grace and beauty.

  • Circa 1900 Original poster for the Tillier dance Troup at the Palais de Glace
    Located in PARIS, FR
    The girl who has entered the theatrical profession as a child can be depended upon to lead a clean life when she grows up. She is far, far safer than the girl who enters the profession after childhood.' So wrote John Tiller, whose theatrical school produced the dancing ladies who starred in the original 'Pony Ballet' and whose troupes of 'Tiller Girls' were in great demand for shows not only in London but in Paris, Amsterdam, Turin, and New York. He and Mrs. Tiller began training youngsters at the age of nine. In the schools in London and Manchester, the girls had regular academic studies as well as dancing and were placed in Christmas pantomimes when still children. When they grew up, they were given jobs in various Tiller troupes (each managed by a mature woman who watched out for them)... [This lithograph]... was intended for all of the Tiller Troupe performances. The black type at the bottom was surprinted later to indicate, in this instance, their appearance at the Palais de Glace...
