Henri Rivière's "The Prodigal Son: Deuxième Tableau" is a color lithograph from a series of 15 prints that illustrate the poetry and music of Georges Fragerolle, bound together as a unified artistic and literary work. The print demonstrates Rivière's mastery of color lithography technique, employing his characteristic refined palette and decorative sensibility to visualize the biblical narrative. This collaborative project between artist, poet, and composer represents a significant example of fin de siècle multimedia integration, where visual art, literature, and music were designed to work in concert.
