→ Aux Bodleian Libraries d’Oxford, l’exposition The Art of Advertising qui débute le 5 mars (nous en tirons l’image ci-dessus). Voici la description alléchante qui en est faite en anglais :
The Art of Advertising tells the story of British advertising from the mid 18th century to the 1930s through an incredible collection of handbills, trade cards, novelties, posters and much more. Drawing on the Bodleian’s renowned John Johnson Collection of Printed Ephemera, one of the largest and most important collections of printed ephemera in the world, the exhibition will reveal how advertisements reflect social attitudes over time while showcasing some of the finest examples of advertising illustration and commercial art.
