Cover for the Oeuvres Choisies of Adolphe Léon Willette

A man with a flushed red face sits in a chair before a print stand holding prints from 'Le Courrier Français'. With his right hand, he throws several prints into the fireplace. Next to him stands a half-naked maid hanging prints on a clothesline. On the mantelpiece stands a bust of Minerva, and an owl sits on the back of the chair. On the back of the cover, an advertisement for 'Le Courrier Français' depicting a half-naked woman in bed with two putti.
