EDMUND DULAC POSTERS





Edmund Dulac was of course famous for his book illustrations, but he did design a few posters. The following are the ones I know about:



1. MACBETH 1911. His Majesty's Theatre. Polychromatic. 76 x 50cms. The original watercolour is 84 x 63cms.


2. THE WILLOW TREE 1917. Globe Theatre. 51x 31.5cms. Polychromatic.





3. CYRANO DE BERGERAC 1919. 76 x 51cms. Polychromatic. Garrick Theatre (image shown has Theatre Royal strip pasted over the original Garrick Theatre title).

    my 95 year old man found some drawings by Edmund Dulac that look like originals, almost like newspaper drawings. Greek mythology and look like chinese. Any idea how I can find out what they are worth?
