Original – Poster for the original production of Édouard Lalo's Le roi d'Ys (1888)

Reason

While one could criticise some aspects: the way the poster raises up its lower right corner to accommodate the attribution onto the plate is a little awkward - it's still from the opera's première, and that makes it valuable. An annoying bastard of a poster to clean up - loads of micro-tears and filthy border paper, but I think I did a good job.

Was seen on Commons today and no-one's voted oppose yet! ...Or support. It's early.
