Original – Poster for the Paris première of Jules Massenet's Roma
Reason
A fine poster from the Paris première, and part of my goal to celebrate every Massenet opera. Quite like the portrayal of the characters as Roman statues - it's clever, and visually appealing. Article is kinda stubby, but probably just about long enough; I'll try to bulk it up before the main page. Rotation is kind of a bodge; there's no universal solution - level out the text and the sides are tilted; level out the sides and the bottom is tilted - so I tried for the best compromise.
