Erte Listed Russian French Artist Signed Original Limited Edition Serigraph "Opium" 1985 Framed

Listed Russian/French Artist and Designer Erté* Signed, on lower right, this Masterful, Asian-influenced Figural. It is an Original, Limited Edition Serigraph on heavy Lithographic Paper, c. 1985, Numbered 181/300. It is Titled "Opium" and is one part of the 'Mah Jongg' Suite. The other part, Titled "Mah Jongg" is also available in another lot. A Risque and Svelte woman reclines on a soft white blanket and leans on a beautifully decorated cylindrical pillow with a tassel as she smokes. She is wearing a sheer metallic, or beaded top that shows a hint of her breast. Above her, several dynamic Japanese, Kabuki-like (costumes and masks) figures move about. Above them is a 'black on black' image of a highly stylized sky.
2" Wide Rounded Black Mica moulding with a 3 1/2" Wide Hand Wrapped, One-piece Linen Liner with a Gold metal strip and plexiglass are included in this listing. We believe everything in contact with the piece is Acid Free (see 2nd to last image). The mica moulding is delaminating, mostly on the sides but we would reframe.
Image opening measures 22 X 30 and is in Very Good to Excellent condition.
Outside measure of the frame is 33 X 40 and is in Fair condition.
Please carefully examine all images for condition.
Apologies for glare or reflection in Images due to photographing under glass(plexi).
