Dated 1945, "Le centaure suivi de la Bacchante Pl.11" is an artwork by Maurice de Guerin.

The range of materials widened to include acrylic paint, screen printing, and mixed media. It is listed in the Illustration collection. The image is in portrait orientation. Background on Illustration: The late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries are often described as a golden age of book and magazine illustration. Printing methods such as woodcut, engraving, lithography, and photomechanical reproduction each shaped how illustrators worked.
