Les affiches illustrées is a Paris book of 1896 by Ernest Maindron and Jules Chéret, published by G. Boudet, presenting French illustrated posters from 1886 to 1895 for collectors and print enthusiasts. Its pictures are reproductions of poster designs in colour lithography and black ink, with bold silhouettes, flat colour areas and lively crowd scenes that show how posters of the period used strong outlines and dramatic figures to catch the eye from the street.
