Romain de Tirtoff (23 November 1892 – 21 April 1990) was a Russian- born artist and designer known by the pseudonym Erté,
from the French pronunciation of his initials. He was a diversely
talented 20th-century artist and designer who flourished in an array of
fields, including fashion, jewelry, graphic arts, costume and set
design and set design for film, theatre, and opera, and interior decor.
Erté
continued working throughout his life, designing revues, ballets, and
operas. He had a major rejuvenation and much lauded interest in his
career during the 1960s with the Art Deco revival. He branched out into
the realm of limited edition prints, bronzes, and wearable art.
Two
years before his passing, Erté created seven limited edition bottle
designs for Courvoisier to show the different stages of the
cognac-making process, from distillation to maturation.
Just an amazing talent in so many way. I fell in love with him the first time I laid eyes on his work.
I love animal prints and always admired a similar painting of Erte', of course because I adore cats
of all breeds.
