Titled "International [for] April," this color lithograph appears to be a poster advertising an April issue of a magazine called *International*. Its maker, William L. Carqueville, was an American illustrator working in the 1890s, when color lithography was the main way publishers put bold images on city streets and newsstands. The date of about 1897 comes from an old caption card and has not been confirmed, so treat it as approximate. Posters like this one show how magazines competed for readers in a crowded print market.
