Rachel Berendt (1933). Leonetto Cappiello (Italian, 1875-1942). Poster. Printer: Imp. Devambez, Paris.

"Although Cappiello's portrayal of theatrical personalities was most often executed in his early caricature style, the poster for actress Rachel Berendt is a well-conceived professional design that creates the effect of the artiste stepping out from the dark wings into the glow of the spotlight. Berendt's real name was Marie Monique Arkell (1893-1957)."
