Pendu (Le)

Subject
It could be a project for the film "Le Pendu" by Louis Gasnier with Max Linder in 1906.

Description:
A hanged man, obese, calm, grotesque, but with twisted fingers. This poster is astonishing in its subject. Unfortunately, no information indicates its purpose. The layout can be compared to the painted photo showing us a thin hanged man.
