Absinthe & Art XI - Henri Avelot
Henri Avelot (1873 - 1935) was a painter, cartoonist, illustrator and author. He exhibited his paintings at the
Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts in 1901, but it was at the Salon des Humoristes, where he exhibited a series of
designs and drawings in 1910, that his talent as a satirist was first recognized.

From a 1904 issue of the popular satirical journal Le Rire, comes this remarkable and prescient full page cartoon  
- De L'Heureuse Influence de L'Alcoolisme dans les Arts - satirizing the effects of alcohol and absinthe on the
avant-garde artists of the day.
