Description
African/ Conservatory/ Works/ of/ Nativity// Mardi-Gras. Colour lithograph, 79.6 x 44.3 cm (tiny folds and stains on margins). - The African Conservatory, currently the Oeuvre royale des cerceaux Princesse Paola, is a Brussels-based charity founded in 1876. The aim of the association was to raise funds through "folk" events, particularly during Carnival, to help children's charities. The black on the poster refers to the tradition of members dressing up as "noirauds" to raise money.
