Fernand Mourlot History
The Atelier Mourlot, founded in 1852, was a lithographic print shop located in Paris, France. Originally a producer of fine wallpaper, the Atelier Mourlot became involved in the printing of illustrated books as well as high quality posters for the French National Museums and major foreign institutions.
By 1937 Mourlot had established its reputation as the largest printer of artistic posters.
Fernand Mourlot (1895-1988), a graduate of the famous École Nationale des Arts Décoratif, ran the studio for six decades.
Under his patronage, many major twentieth century artists visited the shop and worked there to create original graphic works of art.
The list of artists who worked at the Mourlot Studios is extensive:
