Henri Gabriel Ibels was a French illustrator, printmaker, painter and author Ibels' images were powerful and heavily graphic, in keeping with the movement that was a generous admixture of fine art, graphic design and advertising, as seen in the lithographs and posters for theater, cabaret, and book illustration. His graphic style owed much to the art of Honore Daumier, Japanese woodcuts, Paul Gauguin and the Pont-Aven School.
