Coco Chanel Art Print by Sem (Georges Goursat, 1920s)

Product details

Coco Chanel through Sem’s eyes

Celebrate an interest in fashion history with this reproduction of a 1920s Coco Chanel illustration by Sem, the pen name of Georges Goursat. Its named subject and illustrator give it a specific identity within a collection of Parisian fashion art. Choose it for a dressing room, study or gallery wall exploring the people and illustrations associated with the period.

About the illustrator

Sem was known for witty portraits of fashionable figures, bringing caricature into the world of society and style. This print offers a different approach to fashion art from a photographic portrait or a garment advertisement. The decade is retained without assigning an unverified exact year or publication to the original illustration. It is a reproduction for your wall rather than an original work by Goursat.

Create a personal fashion corner

Imagine displaying the print beside a dressing table or a shelf of fashion books, with warm wooden furniture, softly textured fabrics and favourite accessories nearby. It can introduce a connection to historic illustration into an everyday room without requiring every furnishing to follow a 1920s style. The recorded beige, blue and pink palette provides a starting point for coordinating surrounding details or companion prints.

A smaller format can join an established gallery arrangement, while a larger print gives the Sem work a more prominent place. Pairing it with Barbier’s Parfum Tendre continues the perfume connection in the existing collection. Plank’s Vogue cover and Barbier’s An Afternoon on the Water broaden the display through other examples of 1920s fashion illustration. Consider your available wall space and usual viewing distance before choosing a size.

Paper, printing and finish

This product is a reproduction, not an original Sem illustration or an antique printed page from the 1920s. It is produced using giclée printing on 200gsm matte art paper, offering a matte paper surface for your chosen display. Select a print-only version if you would like to use your own frame, or choose a framed option with a black wooden frame and white mount. Three paper sizes provide flexibility for an individual fashion-art feature or a grouped gallery of period illustration.
