Jules Cheret was a French painter and lithographer who became a master of Belle Epoque poster art. He has been called the father of the modern poster. Cheret created vivid poster ads for cabarets, music halls, and theaters. Cheret became so much in demand that he expanded his business to providing advertisements for pharmaceutical products.

Giclee (jee-clay) is an advanced printmaking process for creating high quality fine art reproductions. The attainable excellence that Giclee printmaking affords makes the reproduction virtually indistinguishable from the original piece. The result is wide acceptance of Giclee by galleries, museums, and private collectors. Gallery wrap is a method of stretching an artist's canvas so that the canvas wraps around the sides and is secured a hidden, wooden frame. This method of stretching and preparing a canvas allows for a frameless presentation of the finished painting.
