Erté, 1892 - 1990

Picture
Erté was a designer and sculptor born in St. Petersburg, Russia, on November 23, 1892. 
 
Erté is a pseudonym for Romain de Tirtoff, and is the French pronunciation of the artist's initials, R.T.  He came from a distinguished Russian family, and his father served as an admiral in the Russian fleet.  Based in Paris throughout his life, Erté (Romain de Tirtoff) was best known for his incomparably styled fashion and theater designs of the 1910s and 1920s.  From 1915 to 1936, Erté was associated with Harper's Bazar, furnishing readers with fashion designs, cover art, and word-pictures of the European fashion scenes.
