  • A full-length Bernhardt leans against a curved niche decorated with a foliage pattern. She has short dark hair and wears a black tunic, black stockings and a long black cape, with a dagger hanging from her belt and a book in her hand. A green dragon climbs from behind the niche. The words 'Lorenzaccio, Pièce en V actes et un épilogue d'Alfred de Musset, Adaptation de M. Armand d'Artois' feature at the top of the poster, and 'Théâtre de la Renaissance' at the bottom.
