Frahinfaz). To Delville we owe a curious little placard, in the Symbolist manner, which advertised "Pour l'art, Ier exposition à Bruxelles;" the advertisement for the second exhibition was the work of Ottevaere. A fantastic and rather picturesque poster was done to announce one of the annual exhibitions of "La Libre Esthetique." It represents a strange-looking human being standing among flowers, under a lurid sky, and holding in his hands a decorative scroll, upon which the legend is inscribed. Amongst other interesting Belgian placards are the "Velodrome Bruxellois" by G. Gaudy, the "Paul Hankar" by A. Crespin, and a poster in monochrome in imitation of a bas-relief bearing the legend "La plus noble force sociale est le Droit." All of these are reproduced here. It may be noted in conclusion that most of the Belgian posters show strong signs of French influence.
