Deauville - French Notebook

24 pages, lined

This reclining, long-limbed beauty hints at this notebook's suitability for capturing thoughts that arise during moments of idleness, making it an ideal companion for vacation! We've sourced her from a 1930s poster created by Jean-Gabriel Domergue to promote Deauville, a seaside resort on the Côte Fleurie of France's Normandy region.

Jean-Gabriel Domergue (1889-1962) was a renowned French painter and self-proclaimed "inventor of the pin-up." With his elegant portrayals of women featuring long necks, he created a distinct artistic style. His vibrant social life brought him close to high society, where he organized grand balls and designed fashion accessories. His exquisite poster art perfectly captured the opulence and luxury of the upper class. In recognition of his talent, he became the curator of the Jacquemart-Andre Museum in Paris and a fellow of the Academy of Fine Arts. He is thought to have produced some three thousand paintings throughout his career!
