Note du spécialiste

In 1927 the Union Centrale des Arts Décoratifs organized a competition around the theme bureau de dame, which was a sort of reflexion of the sociological changes of the women's role in the French society. Emile Colas was one of the six finalist and was therefore exhibited at the Pavillon Marsan.
