La Première Imprudence — Green Evening Gown Postcard

A 1920 Art Deco fashion plate by George Barbier, titled ‘La Première Imprudence’: a woman in a jade-green evening gown drapes a dusty pink ostrich-feather stole over her arm, while a man in a dark tuxedo turns away, cigarette in hand, before a copper rose-tree wallpaper. A folded note rests on the ledge between them, hinting at the story.
